With Every Breath

Shaking hands
I clench my teeth
Anger pouring from me
Like Poison it seeps
Tainting everything he touched
Like fire melting rocks
Liquid nitrogen I burn
Memories like paper torn
His face a betrayal of all I knew
With laughter my heart he slew
Dead animal, rotting flesh
I curse him with a witches death 
Hurt and pain laced through my blood
Tainted till I go numb

I hope that I never make you this mad - I like the absence of defining the situation which provoked this deep anger in you, and I marvel at the very unique personality you expressed for this expression - I don't like shaking hands anymore, unless its a woman that I find interesting - J.A.B. %
