When your eyes turn black
with anger
and your mouth curls
sarcastically,
to accent the threat of
your raised fist,
I know
I couldn’t hate you more.
And in the aftermath,
when the pieces I start to pick,
I hope
for the sake of my soul
that I can find a way
to hate you less.

Very good poem.

I hope if this is current you will take
that wonderful creature who is yourself
and go elsewhere.

Some people think might is right... but they're wrong. Every time another glass is shattered, it injures something inside you and cuts far deeper than the shards could. This man is losing something far more beautiful than crystal... and doesn't even know he'll be left with the heart cut out of him when he's left with only the mess of a broken glass... as a lady exits with class. Beautiful writing, dear friend... so painful a subject.
