It’s only words, they say
To take your heart away
But your words, sweetheart
They tear me apart
A harsh remark here
A rude comment there
An exasperated sigh
And then…indefinite silence
The love has somewhat retreated
Beneath these gashes of words
An empty void remains in my soul
Leaving a trail of blood
It’s only words I had
It’s only wounds I have…
To take your heart away
But your words, sweetheart
They tear me apart
A harsh remark here
A rude comment there
An exasperated sigh
And then…indefinite silence
The love has somewhat retreated
Beneath these gashes of words
An empty void remains in my soul
Leaving a trail of blood
It’s only words I had
It’s only wounds I have…

Thanks for stopping by at my blog! Though I dont write much these days it still feels very good to have someone drop in a line when they like something :)

Yup harsh words which the person did not even mean can totally ruin what we got going. A brillianly written poem.
