Your Words

by katie-biesiada

You told me you wouldn't be happy. Those words are engraved in my memory... They were unnecessary And cold And harsh. And they changed me. I don't see the world in the same way. I'm deeper in this never-ending abyss... Deeper than I've been before. Words are powerful. They carry a weight greater than anything else. They are hard to forget. And they can be harder to remember correctly. Your words hurt. Like a bullet straight to the heart. I keep finding it harder to breathe Every day... And it's your fault. I keep telling us both that it's not, But there's no other explanation. You created those words. The words that tore me apart. And no words can fix me. I'm a broken mess. Your words turned me into this. I am cold, and alone, and empty. I still love you, But I blame you for everything. And that's what continues to hurt the most. Not so much the words, But the weight they carry... And how the person who expressed them, Was the only one I could trust.
