Bitter in My Bones

Bitter in My Bones

You spoke in silver,
But your silence screamed.
You painted futures
In broken dreams.
I begged for fire,
You gave me stone.
Now I carry bitterness
In my bones.

Bitter in my bones, it grows,
Like roots beneath where nothing shows.
You left your mark in quiet tones,
A love that chilled me to the bone.
No final fight, no shattered glass,
Just empty words you let slip past.
You’re gone, but never really gone—
You're bitter in my bones.

You wore the truth
Like borrowed clothes,
Said just enough
To keep me close.
But love that lingers
While it rots—
Is colder than
The love that’s not.

Bitter in my bones, it stays,
Like smoke that haunts the brightest days.
You fed me lies with steady grace,
Now bitterness has found its place.
You smiled while I fell apart,
Soft venom dripping from your heart.
You left, and yet I’m not alone—
You're bitter in my bones.

I buried hope beneath the ache,
But some ghosts never learn to break.
I don’t forgive, I won’t pretend—
Not every hurt deserves an end.

Bitter in my bones, it’s true—
You’re in the quiet, cutting through.
Your echo walks these halls at night,
No flame, just frost beneath the light.
You taught me love, then left your throne—
And now I wear
Your bitter in my bones.
