A Friend Of Mine

 

I hope you understand,
The words that cling
In the air.
The tension that builds,
Just as an intense storm
Builds.

I hope you understand
I kill you with kindness.
Words smother you in
Charm and honey.
My bitter words held back
By morals.

An invisible knife stabs
Your flesh drawing
Blood.
Our blood mingles for
A moment.
My wounds sting,
My blood has almost run
Dry.
