On the outside of the glass
Aphorisms ringing like a bell
Insensitivity weaves a cobweb
Vulnerability trapped in a
medical syringe
Harshness spoken with a sterile
and violent tongue
Commanding and demanding
Blatant and in bright lights
Waterworks flowing like a creek
Hearts awaken and cringe
An awkward silence creeps
Hoping love seeps through the cracks
seeking a mysterious ocean
Harshness with sterile really got to me. Your ability to contrast is so concise and poignant. Well done!
