Brace for Impact

Hold your breath
and
try to Numb yourself of him
…

BRACE FOR IMPACT!

crashing into that Stoic Wall of a Man.
Into the cold center
of his Soul
Where you left Your Warmth for him.
Your Love.

Numb Yourself!

Harden Yourself.

Turn Away…

Quickly!

Before his uncertain eyes
can lock with yours.

Rub the Goosebumps from your arms.
And Push that fast rising lump
back down quickly.

Swallow it!
Hard!

Before the tears sting your eyes.
And your cheeks start to warm…
Rather Burn.

If they spill over, he will see…
Though you long for him to break the arm that he uses to keep you at bay, to keep your heart at bay!

As is you were Poison,
and your love
would Infect him,
Maybe end him…

Don’t Breathe!

As he moves to close,
like he wants to be infected,
while he Simultaneously,
Slices through you with his words.

Using his Bitter tone to push your love away, though you can see how he longs for it.
For you.

As if playing a cruel game of cat and mouse but
always switching roles, chasing your love away or pulling it close.

Inflicting my pain and his own.

This Love…

he feels it too…?
He feels it too!!
Just as much as you…

BRACE FOR IMPACT

But he won't breathe his love into you.
He will let you sting.
He will let you burn.
And Break.

Swallow that lump of pain in your throat.

HARDER!

You need to Numb Yourself, You need to numb yourself better this time.

So you can Breathe Again.

After His Impact…
