When you turn away from my loving gaze,
it cuts like a knife.
Deep and true, the cut may never heal.
Once upon a time, you might have reflected the awe and wonder I saw in you.
But now you possess knives in your glare.
Severing you from me.
Chopping away the memories.
Slicing the feelings you might have once had,
into little ribbons of hate.
Bleeding ribbons of angry love.



 "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
-the words of a friend

Did you know that I'm a massage therapist?
I work on scar tissue all the time, even mine. Having been stabbed a few times literally I know it's no fun, even if it is with the eyes. I think this painful stab goes far deeper than any blade that pierced a body.
I feel this kid.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Thanks for the note on "Sweet Breath".
My E contact is dead so this is the best way I know of to tell you.
Again Thanks kid.
