How dare you
Tell me how I ought
To grieve;
That it mustn't phase me
If I never report
What I endured.

How dare you
Assume that I am fine
Simply because I never once
Outwardly displayed
What tore at my insides.

How could you
Never apologise for
Throwing such hateful things
My way?
How is it your actions
Never  bothered you;
Never haunted you
Until this day?

How could you
Believe only your
Response was valid;
That it was excusable of you
To grow vindictive with me,
And for your heart
To become pallid.

But now that all
Is said and done,
I pray you finally see,
That by disregarding my security,
You have burned the bridge with me.
