Harsh Words

Written by Anon

 

Split open through the brutality of the words

My voice bleeds unwelcomed between us,

because you, you say,

There’s something about the way I pronounce my ‘r’s that make you want to run up a wall?

Something about the confident, cocky tone in my voice that doesn’t go well with my face, 

Something about how I remind him too much of his sister, 

Like a memory brought back from the dead.
