Never Say

it's a big mistake

The silence...

Ohhh the silence.

My ill concieved words hang in the air

Like a feather caught in the wind.

And I can only sigh at the though of my own foolish notion..

To turn back time...

To quiet my speach...

To never speak the lines again.

Fear and anxiety grip me

Like the cold hand of death.

While the seconds pass like hours.

And finally the response is answered.

Carried into  my brain

By unseen sound waves,

And it's not how I planned.

But it is what I feared.

I sigh deep once more, wishing it was my last breath.

Take in the words that countered my own,

Roll over,

and fall into a slow,

terrible sleep.

The beginning of the end

Love is sweet-bitter. I know it is bitter-sweet, but I think it starts sweet then ends bitter so I reversed them. But it is never the end.

Ok from a writers point of view, great piece. The emotions are powerful. Feeling of sorrow, loss, helplessness, frustration pour out over me as I read this. "and its not how I planned. But it is what I feared." So real.

As your friend. Im sorry and Im hear for you any time. xoxo
