one word

by Antwan Fields - Aries

all it takes is one word
from london england to hell and all the way back
one word that can break us up
the day we found a half-dead pup
green acres and scottish brogues
the angry words that shall flow
oh, i am hollow, for you i rise
the anger that follows shall grip my throat like a vise
from right to left, again to the left
you didn't take my sense, but my heart you did theft
pulling at the ropes that bind me and hold me tight
one word that shall lead us into the promised land in the dead of night
the word you speak fills me with dread
you stopped the anger but the unsureness you have fed
you may have solved the problem, but there was a cost
 what comes between us, dead love,the everlasting frost.
