#MightyPoets Untitled 23
Why the hands that once wrapped around my waist, ended up around my neck
And why?
If everything apparently happens for a reason
What was the reason for the the person whom I love, would do that to me?
Is it possible to love someone, yet want to hurt them so badly?
“Think of how an accusation like that would ruin his life think about the choice you are making”.
But the choice was never mine.
And why
Why is it, that I love this person?
With all of my heart
The same heart he once tried to stop from beating.
When not with hands, with words and venom.
Spiting vitriol as easily as taking your next breath.
So unworthy and unlovable, the slurs engraved in my mind.
And you never admit it, to doing any of it
You didn’t just hurt me, or lied to me, or called me names.
You didn’t just inflict physical harm on me
You broke a really deep part of me inside
A part I have only now just started to get back.
