A Story by Kathryn Smith

Don't turn your back on me


Don't burry your head deep


Just because you don't know what to say.



Maybe I just want some words of distraction


I feel like I'm being consumed


Maybe I'm expecting the perfect reaction




To pull me back

I hate how you can make a friend so quickly..and just as quickly they can turn their back on you and discard you like a piece of trash.


Like you never meant anything in the first place.


I hate how people don't know how to use their words properly.


Because they don't know how to tell you the bad news.


Or that they have changed.


Words might sting for a moment, yes.


But I would rather have been stung than to be left with silence that is deafening.

Yes, Kathryn,
There is nothing quite like like the hurt of losing someone deeply cared for and adored that you've given your best to, opened your heart and inner self and feelings to, trusted and believed-in, and how succinctly and vividly you've penetrated this overwhelmingly sad sensation into my senses.
And, the forlorn feelings of loneliness and sorrow that follow can be almost unbearable to find that you've become so little valued, so easily discarded … such a sense of stunned emptiness it leaves.
I wonder if it ever goes away!
Kathryn, you've never, not once, disappointed me with your offerings … you've such a genuine and honest vividness in the manner you express emotion and feelings, in the ways you present your writing, and I dearly love how you so creatively make the wondrous sense of being pulled "back" come to life, it's no wonder I felt so very deeply the pull and yearning, too … it's just one more reason I'll always be your favorite fan.
Hugs 'n smiles of warmest thanks for all you've gifted! ⁓ Richard x0x

Title and song … the perfect choices. : )

Was such an amazing way to start your story, and I also like the way you wrote it and the letters sizes, good one Kath.
