It's just those words, belittling words
resounding through my head.
Wishing for the worst of worst,
those thoughts I often dread.

He can spout those awful words,
and aim them to my heart.
Such hatefulness in eyes once soft.
Inside I split apart.

The pain is ever present now,
I think he feels the end.
Thus buttons push from words need said.
In pride I try, defend.

What once there was, but now is gone
except for feelings scoffed.
I can't pretend nor comprehend
the loss, what once was soft.

Words spoken in anger? Hope not.

oh these words were meant to aim...and maim...and they did what he intended... to break me down. I'm done for the evening and probably a day or so.

Thanks for the read.

M, you are precious, too precious to open your ears to such things. Close them and fill your heart with soft words again.

Bitterness is the source of foul language. I feel sorry for him if he feels he must speak like that to make up for what he lacks.

Well dear M,
You know I care for you so. Credibility is only for those we respect. And I respect you so very much. Hope it helps to wash away those hurtful things said that have no legitimacy.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

You are very sweet Larry.  It is amazing how some words can wipe away years of caring.

hugs and thanks
M
