Silence

The hurt I felt is in my silence.
You lied to me and did not care.
Your excuse was lame.

You say my reaction was uncalled-for.
So very angry you were with me.
Well I am not a robot.

You tell them I know everything.
Then you act like I am insane.
Why do you say those hurtful words?

 

Is there not the respect of honesty?

To be given to the one you once loved.

You cannot make two women happy.

It is in our DNA.

 

 

Author notes

“And sometimes hurt is not of the body.
More often it is words, or lack thereof. A lack of words.
The cruelty of silence.”
— Unknown.
