Two Word Death

Words like weapons
sheathed in waiting

Nosebleed of paranoia
makes quick work of your resolve
Now the pain...

yes...the pain

You love him so much that you're going to make him hurt

just like you

Have your warm cup of disappointment and savor the taste
this time are you not vindicated?

No, well...yeah, right?

Surely.

All that matters now is the red rage
and the calming blue balm at the other side of those two words

Here they come...

You hope they convey the right message...

Just how destroyed you are
how ripped apart by the sheer audacity
the absolute insolence

So like it or not...

You give them out.

Sleep well with this sentiment you echo

"F*** You"

and all at once, you give your pain away and someone else dies with it.

Brian,

This one hurts, deeply. An excellent reminder to watch our mouths, which are our undoing. Well done!

Brian, we can all relate and sadly so. You made an excellent poem from the incident. As with storms that rage , they always return to the calm that allows reason to happen...be hopeful...

Love and hugs,
Eileen

Based on a true story...a story of misunderstanding and frustration boiling over. A tragedy really.
