Emotional Minefield

Tread lightly

Danger lurks

Speak softly

Words are

The trigger

Mistaken communication

Dialogue truncated

Suspicious intonations

Feelings misread

Character misconstrued

Unstable emotions

Shrapnel scars

Fragmented feelings

Sarcasm sears

Cerebral shears

Cardio fears

Optical tears

Concepts like

Appendages lost

Faux Replaced

Cast plastics

Never quite

The same

Stronger though

More resilient

Never ending

Mind mines

It’s not

My war

I didn’t

Start it

Will it

Ever end?

I mean

The one

With myself.

Trying to

Clear the

Invisible mines

So no

One known

Gets hurt
