Spiteful anger wielded by a broken heart
becomes venomous; cruelty projected in mania -
so meaningless, heartless, unforgivableā¦
love briefly misplaced by rage and denial.
Feelings remain, but promises fade like smoke,
to dissipate in the unyielding clutches of time.
Misguided foolish hatred that lasted a moment
has sealed all hopes and memories away eternally,
locked away in the prison of my empty chest.
