Conflict

Unforgiving glances
Beyond all but fiction
These eyes alone
Scream for conviction
Across the room
Across the sky
This vendetta carries onward
Stagnating any hope, any reason
His drunken words stay,
Forever carved into my soul
Logical thinking is impermissible
Why did he go?Where is he now
Apparently, here at home
But staying inside
Away from me
Conversations are considered inept.

Thank you Julie,

Thank you for being one of the fair few that have actually understood what I have been through, and what I am currently going through. Thank you. I can't say that my faith in humanity has been restored but maybe there is some hope for this world of idiocies and hypocritic politicians. Thank you. I am not offended, it makes me feel not so alone. Not so, branded, I guess. Thank you. Phoenix.
