#dagger
enduring the pain of loneliness is better than being stabbed in the heart with a dagger called friendsip once again

I'll bury the hatchet As you slowly plunge A dagger into My chest So we can call it True love

True love
"I HATE YOU!" Screamed loud enough for the world to hear Stated twice just to make the statement clear It hurts but I try to always remember That she will for sure be sure To apologize for it just a little bit later Believing whole heartedly that should expunge her And wipe clean the ledger However, What's leftover after the vocalized slaughter? After the anger? Invisible wounds from the verbal dagger Hurt immensely as they linger They never heal ever either, They never scar, only scab over Still raw as the next battle gets closer The one I see in the windshield drawing near Is almost always identical to the one in the rearview mirror Only changing minor details here and there This is what I get for asking her, "Hey beautiful, what's the matter?" It's a cautionary tale, buyer beware Be aware, Take note of what you receive when you care Is it truly worth staying and fighting through the cancer? For the moment let's set aside the endeavor of defining "forever" I first need to know what the f**k happened to "together" How can having a partner feel so singular? ©2024

~•§•~ One Example ~•§•~
In whispers soft, apologies are spun,   Like magic spells beneath the sun,   Yet hollow echoes fill the air,   For they can't heal the wounds laid bare.   You say "sorry" without feeling deep,   Unaware of the scars you reap,   No effort made for reconciliation's start,   Leaving shattered pieces of a broken heart.   How can you act as if nothing's amiss,   Sending messages with a careless kiss?   Can't you see the effort I've bestowed,   While you turn the blame, letting falsehoods grow?   Your words, a dagger, twist and turn,   Making me believe it's my fault to learn.   But if your heart lies elsewhere, let it be known,   So I can find my place, no longer alone.   If it's her you seek, then set me free,   From this tangled web of deceit, let me flee.   For I deserve truth, not shadows cast,   Release me now, let go at last.

A Poetic plea: Release me
Every time someone leaves me it feels like they’ve taken a dagger straight to my heart It isn’t a fast motion but slow and painful The suffering prolonged. It isn’t made out of metal, but wood When it’s pulled out of my body Each time, they leave behind pieces of themselves, splinters I wonder how many I’ve collected? Im sure by now I can create a dagger if my own.

Splinters
~ lover poet friend~ ~~~~ Do with us as you please CONSPIRING UNIVERSE ~RD for angel K~ You aligned us but we the lovers turn the keys to accept or decline even our frantic tantric joy where we rhyme. For too long I shot my doors fearing flinching distance will have the last laugh. ~~~~ then came my love RD and I can touch Raj places no one can and he Mine that much more.   I am over being out of time   Not taking more blows I exude security confidence power value my yes and nos are good I am myself If you must to her go who waits for her younger half green needing wear, Go. And you keep your love and Angel K me on hold;? I rather keep your sword And Z dagger in hearts orb. ~~~ The cosmos needs nothing Why should I? I showed you how my journey can prosper us both and our family! not you and ur other Z. ~~~~ We mirrored each other searching for long lost lovers yet all you see is distance. And your Z. There are so many songs to play many lovely little things to live for yours and mine. Remember make up your mind for our gates to open up your tiny window z must close-respect my freedom of speech. My love and feelings matter Yours matter more to me. We are at crossroads I've been here before ~~~~ Dignity whispers I am disciplined in the art of love and boundaries. I ain't door mat for lovers rainny days. ~~ By Karijinbba.

Greener at crossroads
I think you never really move on from 'that' person. The pain just becomes more dull where it once was so sharp, sending daggers in to your oh so tender heart. A.C.

'that' person
Your touch burns my skin, as hot as a blazing fire Your words, pierce my heart just like a sharp dagger Your eyes, undress my soul, gently and effortlessly. You, wander through my mind, at any moment and any time.

You
Goodnight, little darlings. Off to sleep, kindred crestfallen. Welcome your dreams once more. They can lift your burdens by teaching them how to fly, and away they shall flutter with just one wish from your heart. Wherefore, you can bid them departure, spending summer looking after the butterflies, winter lying dormant, far from the quiet rooms of home, where you comfort mother and pray for father's imminent return ..... .... ... .. .

Fragile Tendril
High Looming And Scheming Low Covering And Screaming In the ray of my light Here stay into my sight Laid in your almighty throne Wine over your toga we will mourn Have you decided? To be left unguided? No matter what I won't miss the cut Dedicated for you only Now sleep soundly Maybe not tonight Only I made to be right Still remain Above you Fear Am I

The sword of Damocles
your sword is pointed at my neck, so go ahead and slit my throat. you'll see no fear in my eyes when you do. the tip of my dagger already did its job, and soon, the poison will **** you too.

Sweet poison Glazes thy lips, making them bittersweet Those lips once warm and tender on mine Now lifeless and cold to the touch Oh what ill timing, for him to die as I awake His breaths to shallow as mine deepen His dagger lays upon the floor Bloodied from my betrothed How shall I live without my Romeo Oh I cannot Sweet dagger end this pitiful life So I can be with my Romeo once more.

Death Scene
As I lay in a tangle of sheets, hands clutched over heart as if shielding it from a dagger that had already been stuck inside of it, I marveled at how easy it was for him to break me and my heart once and for all when all I ever did was give over my broken pieces to make him whole.

Make him whole
I hear your voice from the corridor. Your laughter triggers my grief, I get so weak. The voice that once gave me butterflies now feels like a dagger in my chest. I can no longer hide, time's up. I have to face you. I wasn't strong enough to look down and our eyes met. I felt the space, the universe even, between us. A cracked glass wall I can't punch through no matter how hard I'd try. While facing reality the ground beneath me gets blurry. I'll never get away from you. The walls I have to build to survive having you around won't be crushable. Loving you will be my loneliest downfall.

Bulletproof glass
Coming from the mouth of hate A deep green ink tumbling out With those **** red petals Having been stained by the blood Spilling into vile words of suffering Twisting this way and that As if alive- slithering into place I would plunge the dagger Deeper still into your chest Turning it and slicing on either side Until I could reach in and pluck That beating ***** from the cavity And hold it in my hand, so tenderly Just as I always have been with you And then crush it in between palms Applying more pressure until The pain is unbearable and then Maybe you will have felt What you've put me through

"My Sweet"
Our arms lock and embrace I stare at your lovely face the reflection in your eye shows another guy that's standing behind me. Dagger stabbing, blade twisting back bleeding, stomach turning eyes blurry, ears ringing mouth drying, brain denying. Am I just your stability?

Est-ce la fin ?
a mercy misplaced a raven's cries amiss fallen and forgotten he stands over petals dipped gently in blood and a dagger slipping silently from cold hands. it is a treacherous thing, his heart, and it has betrayed his lips.
