Words

I read your diary today. Spying the angry words spewed from the pages within My mind became troubled Your discord; Your discontent All evident in the words of which you penned My fault; always MY fault Everybody's fault Anybody's fault Her own fault? Never, not HER The weight of your words hang around my heart; heavy and painful I grow weary of the weight of the world and your words Your words are too much to rescind I simply don't have it in me; sanity, or otherwise to do any better.

I really like your poem and can relate to its words. I have to remind myself that sometimes words are just words . . . I encourage you to rise above the words -- they may reflect a conflict within her that she is taking out on you -- her hurtful words are crying out for your love, acceptance, -- love her! All the best.
