Words can not translate
This death inside me
Though it is nothing
To the pain I caused

Words to sharp to be held close
Shoes left to bare toes
Tears running down cheeks
Embraces one sided

Words can not fix this
They only further dispute
Actions could possibly
Save my sense of reality

Words were the beginning
Those of sincere concern
Looks of secret passion
All lead to devastation  

Words of endearment
Now left open ended
No place to rest in the cold
Winter is drawing nearer

Words of colder weather
Bring beautiful water clearer
White snow drifts fill
Those old hand prints

Words brought my world to a halt
Shattered my soul
Tore at my heart
All else is to be sold

Words of bargains to learn
Broken minds excluded
Those who tease me
Should learn to fear me

Words of rage spilt
Across open air
Red drips
Through the storm grate

Words broke me
But they also healed
Now they steel me
Away from humanity

Words whispered in ears
These all took root
'She's poisonous' they hiss
This is not amiss

Words birth beliefs
Those that wreck worlds
My world fell
Never to to rebuild

Words can not explain
This hollow hunger that eats me
Busy all day
But still I miss you

Words of longing
Caught in my throat
Once to sweet
Now cut much to deep

Words of caution to those I seek
I beg you now
Leave as swiftly
With fear under feet

Words of wonder at last
How is one to forgive my mistakes?
All that I'm worth I put it all at stake
My love must compete against the hate.
