(W)hat(e)ver
I bare my teeth more than
I say _I love you._
To me, loving is
a threat bigger than death.
Only one can kill you
while you’re still alive.
It’s not that I meant
this blood, it’s just that
you told me red was
your favorite color,
and I panicked.
God, I’m so sorry.

_For some individuals, experiencing gentleness can unexpectedly trigger aggression. This often happens when the person has never encountered kindness before and perceives it as a tactic meant to weaken them. They might not intend to be hostile; rather, they simply don’t know how to soften their approach. _
