Description A forgone
conclusion to
what we might
have been;
what now holds
you and I
transfixed.
I am vexed,
and through this
deafening silence
I simply cannot
hear my own
heart breaking.

If I could rewind time I'd go back to my own birth and drop myself as a baby, just to see what would happen to me in the future.

It sounds so plaintive. Sort of lost. You've always given your poetry a "strong voice". A developed style where you can actually hear or feel the tone.
I can't physically hug you but-
I understand.
