Too late

We are too late,
We danced, we shouldn't have done that,
we were desperate, not good,

We took a heavy burden on our shoulders,
we should have asked: why is this burden not light,
we should have realized: this is wrong.

We spoke about love with carefully chosen words,
carefully??
Do we dare to state that?
love, 
and then carefully?

We looked for excuses,
our kingdom for a good excuse!
We are too late

let us not forgive ourselves,
let us not,
no.
