That name.

by kate   Jan 4, 2009


Have you ever gotten to the point where you cant say someones name because when you slip and say it it seems to slice a vertical line pattern thought the inside of your throat, then you begin to feel the cuts dripping beautiful pained memories that once made you beam, but now make you cringe at the thought of once being so happy with an individual that you once believed was made specifically to be in your life, and you had no idea that that one name would only be there long enough to taste them, form a thirst for. Then without a hint, they pull away, a long dragged out process that you wish was swift and one quick step out. But we all know it cant be easy.
As they are gone now, you realize that that one name, those simple little letters can add up to unrehearsed saga of memories and tears that quickly follow. That name causes everything around you at that moment to freeze, and steal room for those memories to linger long enough to sting you inside. Those memories reach your mind and leave a flood of slivering words that one spoke to you. Attacking you in the most unfair region. If your lucky an hour will pass and you turn numb. And you finally regain a bit of your own thoughts back, and you find one saying, "If that name is spoke again, I will brake open."
