Words Poem by Andrew Rose

Your cursed words pass by me,
Your anger shall not hurt me,
Each word that you have spoke now,
Your flaws will mirror that,

But now your words,
They hit me squarely,
Cruel words digging into the heart,
My loved are not to be spoken of,
not by words of malice and malcontent,

Your crimson essence flows free,
Cut free by your words,
Your words of malice and malcontent,

Your calm silence passes straight through me,
My heart has answered back...
