Words.

“Words, in my not-so-humble opinion, are the most inexhaustible source of magic we have.”

– Albus Dumbledore

 

The words you speak, go straight to my heart

Like an arrow, shot from your mouth

The words get dipped in sorrow and heartache

They mix with my blood, and flow through my veins

Until my whole body, is singing with the pain

The words break down, into a million little pieces

Flowing through me, cutting me with their jagged edges

I just might die, not of a broken heart

Rather, from your broken words.

  1. those shards of words, coursing through veins and slicing the heart into pieces…it’s been said, but, your work is true art…and, I love your opening quote as I am a Harry Potter fan!! 🙂

  2. Soon true. Whoever made that statement, ‘sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me’ had no idea what he was talking about. You really can make or break a person with words.
