Pain of Love II - 4. No Less Deeply
words from the softest voice
are the sharpest
cutting into the skin
without benefit of a blade
without intent
innocent words
out of context
meant to land elsewhere
yet slicing no less deeply
for their lack of aim
the wound bleeds
blood
unknowing
uncaring
that it was never meant to flow
tears
unbidden
unintended
unrestrained
flow from eyes
that see only that
they have failed you
