Gashes

He walks into the room
Too soon.

I try to pull
Down my sleeve

Im too slow
He sees the marks

The smile drops
From his face

He walks over to me
Grabs me by the wrist
Pulls me up off the ground
And gives me a hug

He pulls back my sleeve
And traces the marks
His deep blue eyes
Look into mine

Almost laughing he says
How could you be so stupid hun?
Why-
Why would you do this?

I'm sorry.
I dont know.
Is all i can say

Dont be sorry
He says
Pulling back his own sleeve

Deep gashes...
Symbolize Pain
Symbolize Love
Symbolize Lies
Symbolize Being alone
Symbolize US.
