gesundheit

spiteful syllables
The levee breaks, tear driven.
Spitting out the bone.

Dance on your feelings
Momentary spite can sting
I will ignore it.

Poison tipped arrows
Aimed to wound, not kill, but oh
Sensitive skin breaks.

Climax-voices clash
winding down to silence now
Anger drains from you

Temper cools for now
We lock eyes again
I wear a blanket of shame

So useless to yell
We return to our corners
Sharpening our claws.

Arms embrace for once
So sorry we became this
Tangible love song.
