There Is No Title For Pain

Your arms were safe for me until I decided I needed to leave. Then I tasted the bitterness I had seen you carry in your soul. The bitterness that you said would never touch me, cut like knives to the depths of my vulnerable heart. I’m sorry I hurt you, but Dear God, you hurt me more.

Your pain comes through screaming and shrieking. Nicely done Katherine. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I hope to read more of your poetry.

Thank you. The silent screams are truly the loudest. And much more poetry is yet to come.
