i saw you
the way you see waves caressing the sand
soft
present
careful
i saw you
this time different than before
the eyes of something sinister
the way you see waves crashing in a hurricane
violent
unforgiving
angry
a frightening scene
as if everything i thought i knew of you did not exist
forgotten only in a memory
i saw
anger
doubt
self loathing
...
but thats not my burden to bear
no
its yours
the bruises you left
they..
mean nothing compared to me as to what they will mean to you
i saw you
not for who you portrayed to be
but who you are
and oh that person
is terrifying, oh so terrifying
i saw darkness
darkness
unwavering darkness
