‘Just a kind word’, I begged him to say
His silence that ricocheted back to my ears
And heart and eyes sliced through me
I was diced in every which way.
Tag rejection
Rejection
I have no point to prove
Wish there was more to say
Or even more to share
But I have no words
To say to you
The hurt runs deep and wide
Like blood flowing through my veins
It never goes away
I’ve learnt the lesson
Will live to tell
