the violence of your disastrous words recapitulated in my enraged mind, vows of loaded silence escaping my sealed mouth in strings and bows of neatly framed, sugar coated apologies. thoughts of captured hurt that built up apology after apology encircled my all too radiant blazing red heart. words you never said hurt more than those you did and it was somewhat like letting lose a wild animal, captivating yet oh so intimidating.
the curiosity was evident in your eyes, as they sparkled like a diamond underneath the sunlight, one second I longed to stare into them forever but the next they were so cold that even the slightest glance burned so terribly. memories filled up the biggest gap of emptiness and shallow compliments, making it quite visible that flashbacks were only seconds long and the pain wasn't eternal. The violence of your disastrous words reminded me that your arms weren't home and that this wasn't what I wanted, that your touch sent chills down my spine but not the good kind and maybe I was just so broken that your disastrous words nearly mended me violence of your disastrous words recapitulated in my enraged mind, vows of loaded silence escaping my sealed mouth in strings and bows of neatly framed, sugar coated apologies. thoughts of captured hurt that built up apology after apology encircled my all too radiant blazing red heart. words you never said hurt more than those you did and it was somewhat like letting lose a wild animal, captivating yet oh so intimidating.
the curiosity was evident in your eyes, as they sparkled like a diamond underneath the sunlight, one second I longed to stare into them forever but the next they were so cold that even the slightest glance burned so terribly.
