Silence
July 26, 2013
I want to give you a loving smack in the face!
~With a kiss?
No! With my fist!
I want to feel every beautiful bone break under my fingertips!
~But why?
I’m angry – simply mad with love.
I want to see the pain in your eyes - oh, the loving pain!
~You hurt me.
Shut up.
I want to clasp my hands around your neck until you cannot breathe!
~
… Are you alright?
What have I done? Oh, no. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me!
~
I don’t deserve anyone more perfect than you. I’m sorry.
You have to understand that I love you more than any other!
~
Where have you gone?

This is very eerie and solemn, but I love everything about it! What a wonderful concept wonderfully written. Its speaks the truth of love, and your metaphors are perfect. I find the format very difficult to create, but you make it look so easy! Great job with this; Its one of my favorites :)
