TRILOGY OF EMOTIONAL ABUSE

Words noisily flying around my head like Nazi planes,
Words I dare not utter,
Words gushing for release,
Words strong enough to turn mountains  into plains.
I stare at her with eyes red like Apollo
I wonder how she once took me to the moon like Apollo
Anger raising to momentum like Kobe Bryant's feet,
While like a spectator, I bask in the adulation of the feat.
This is war and I wasn't settling for defeat,
I shall keep shooting with silence until she cowers at my feet.
They say Silence is the best answer for a fool,
I say Silence is the best weapon of the wise.
I need not hit her, no am no animal.
I need not beat her, that ain't right.
But knowing her very weakness is attention,
I need only shut the gates of my affections,
Death from within
has always been the best Battle strategy
I keep calm and be still
let her drown in the sea of her own storm.

She keeps ranting and raving like the stormy sea Jesus calmed
Endlessly seeking words that I have into my mouth rammed.
She fights endlessly for a word from my mouth,
While I stand still like a statue, not making a sound.
Finally, out of ideas,she breaks down and begins to cry,
Her tears pouring like a rainy day in rivers state.
Her agony playing like a ominous tune in a solemn state.
I tilt my head like a pinball machine,
Playing hard like a farm machine
I can see her pain but I play blind,
United, tightening my emotions till she's left back.
Sweet, sweet revenge.
This silence, kills and leaves no remains.

What remains after natural disaster
Is nothing compared to wounds she fester.
My silence had cut in deep like hot knife on butter
Every of her walls pounded like a mortar.
She grows cold, so cold,
Frozen stiff like an icicle.
She begins to fall, falling hard
Like rains drops from a pregnant sky.
She grows lonely, so lonely
Like a dismembered wheel from a bicycle
She begins to spin, spinning hard,
Losing her soft as the seconds go by.
So it seems, so it is.
She was carefully losing her wit,
Her heart returning to its rhythm,
She was no longer ready to listen,
No longer caring to know how I feel,
No longer wanting to mute my silence,
Instead joining me to tune up the volume of the silence
Instead on her lips she puts a seal.

A BIT OF US
