Discipline

it was the stern NO that
cracked his hardness
broke his smile 
and pierced my heart
was the NO worth it
did it build a wall
between us
where guilt and blame
play side by side
will the stern NO
be a nudge
for us to rebuild
patch and love again?
the nudge that
says I forgive you
NO, please forgive me.
