It Still Hurts

your voice floats through the air,

others praise you for the beautiful melodies you weave.

But I have heard your voice spit venom,

burning,

killing, 

destroying.

And it still hurts.

I see a paper

written in your unmistakeable script,

others love you

for the enchanting stories you can scrawl

in your sleep.

But I have seen your words

saying things

the others

would never

have thought

could come

from

your

hand.

Hateful,

Spiteful,

poisoning

words.

And it still hurts.

[SilentVerses]

Resentment born from a hidden truth the mask in your hands trembles and quakes before turning to dust, though as it shatters the pottery cuts your fragile flesh and even in the light of disgust you are sorrowful and bleeding, hidden behind the scandal. Beautiful and brutal the words weave a tale of betrayal and deceitful distaste that in its simplicity becomes divine.
