Your Brutal Words

 

 

Whenever your anger sparked, it pierced my heart

Leaving my soul agonised, wishing to depart

Every single word felt like a dragger

Giving me pain deep forever

Why did our bond turn toxic; when did it all start?

 

Not once but myriad times, my heart fell apart

Tears often pooled my eyes as if never to part

I wondered every day, will this ever end?

Whenever your anger sparked.

 

Do you know any art?

To restore my broken heart,

I fear raising my voice and stutter

Was our relationship always so bitter?

No, it wasn’t; it penetrated like a dart

Whenever your anger sparked.
