Fighting Words

The silence broken by raised voices in the night

curled under the blankets you don't see

your childs' tears fall

Hearts breaking, words flying

hurtful

hateful

heated

One moment, one word to many

one word not enough

love is lost tonight in the hollow victories

and bitter defeats

Was it really worth it?

Did it make you feel the better 'man'?

Where has the love gone lately

why is everyone around me fighting?

I'm left wondering is love a reality

or a distant memory of the ones before

my time

Cause this heart has not heard love

from anothers' lips in awhile

and I'm beginning to think it just

doesn't exist.
