Means choosing intimacy.
And winning my heart.
Dumpster diving for dreams!

Your need for power
Trumps the vows you spoke to me.
I stand defeated.

Did you know their names?
Or are we nothing but goats
Meant to bear your rage?

Still feeling angry.
Still feeling hurt and betrayed.
But damn! I miss you.

Beaten by silence,
But behind that wall lives rage.
Which one wounds me most?
