Emotional Shrapnel

Unmet expectations damage the dormant psyche, futile promises smother the rays of fading hope, unkind words tear the lattice of the mangled mind. My life turns into an urn filled with your ill feeling. Your senses become the fast spreading wild fire, uncontrolled, it boils the blood of intrinsic pride, and as it flares up, it burns my gentle demeanor. Its ferocity blazes the bonhomie of bonding chords. The scorching words stoke the fire, the smoke billows up, clouding the misbalanced crumpled conscience. The shrapnel of words rise like Sphinx from the toxic ashes, emotionally perishes the patient face of my restraint. Your flashing eyes reveal you seethe sensually inside, generating an inferno of malice in your heart . The twisted tongue spills out your sentiments so sadistic, smeared with the vicious venom of your malicious mind. The scruple of sane sagacity turns into shredding cinder, erupting out of your fuming volcanic fervent fury, flows in the spreading smoke of stifling spite, consuming the remains of reason you lose frenzied. The scorched petals of my floral essence are dislodged by the fierce dust storm of passionate perturbation. The lacerated flower vainly tries to regain the lost elegance, sees the dreams turn into debris, suffering the silent pain.
