'Words are wasted on those who do not listen.'
Write a story based on or including this phrase.
You and Me
Poetry not story
The fact that I was screaming and yet the ocean still drowned me out \
was already proof enough
of the lies that had fallen like rocks to push me back
when I had finally broken the surface
Now we are both slowly chipping away
and we just remember each other's mistakes
while we both struggle to breathe through this mess
Words are wasted on those who do not listen
and we've wasted enough
I've tried to bring a steady hand, but my feet keeps slipping
I try to hold your hand, but in the end you were just a dream
Screams always get muffled until the last second
when the knife of curses gets pushed too deep
too soon would they rush and ruin your dreams
until all is out of luck
The skies will one day turn red, red from you and me
Red from what we murdered, of who both of us were to be
The fact that you held me under wad proof enough
of the fight that we've both tried to stop
but rage begun the battle again before the swords could be drawn
And we've both wasted time
again
