To Hurt You


by Lady Marrah


The last thing I’d ever want
Is to hurt you.
Your life means more to me than
My own.
I have searched for you,
Across the span of time,
Unendingly,
Unerringly,
Without doubt that
Somewhere
Somewhen
I’d find you.

The last thing I’d ever want
Is to hurt you.
And as I searched for you,
I also searched myself.
Someplace inside
I was sure
I’d find the right words
To tell you the truth
And everything would turn out
All right.

The last thing I’d ever want
Is to hurt you.
But as you stand there
On the verge of tears
You whisper the name
Of your brother,
And I can see
That you don’t think it
Fits me.

Gentleness has never been
My forte,
And it seems no different
Now.

Not even with you.

But I didn’t mean
To hurt you.
