You feel you’ve triumphed
Seeing your opponent cry
But did you ever see
The hurt look in her eyes?
You feel you have scored
Making life like it was a game
But did you ever think
That in an argument,
Nobody wins?
She hurls hurting words at you
And you do the same
But did you ever see
That she was trying to let you know
“I take that all back
Because I don’t want to hurt you.”
And behind those shouts of anger and pain
You long to see her smile again.
Amazing poem, well written. Nobody wins.
