Perfect Crime
The perfect crime
The way to
Grab someone
Kick them or
Cut them All without moving
Just by uttering a few breaths
Filling the air with poison
The evidence is never obvious
Never broken bones
Always a shattered soul
Victims left to wonder Whether their wounds are real
Thinking words are just words
Constantly told they are overdramatic
Consistently invalidated Just like their minds
These words last forever
Leaving an infinite loop of invisible lacerations
The perfect crime
The one no one talks about
This poem is about:
My family
