She gave kisses that killed.

“I miss you”
said she

the pain
arose

white and thorny

trickling tears
I saved them for she.

but she’d forgotten
the power in words
and though she missed me
still my heart bled.

Thank you for the reply Marge, I was a little sure about the title and the content as it was sort of a vent but now I'm a little more at ease.

Yipes... I'm familiar, this is not a good situation to be in.  I knew you'd be able to do it justice, though, and I read this with confidence in your ability... what you've created turns out to be sharp and accurate.

Very nicely written, Zu.

Cool poem that gets to the point.  I am somewhat confused about your use of the word she in the line "I saved them for she."

Very well written, Mister Zu. Each line was touching and the last few lines really pinpointed the pain.

I'm glad I caught this.

I'm not being rude. You're just insignificant.
