"They'll never accept you"
She doesn't know you hear her
what she is really saying is
"I'll never accept you
words
hateful 
intense
life changing yet
not forceful

Her voice
quiet 
measured 
calm
her meaning
sudden
unexpected 
revealed
the blindfold
You self imposed
held in place by years of denial
of love
ripped away
by a supposed act of kindness

the message is clear
you hear the ugly truth
behind the words

You are quiet
still
unmoving
just breathe
she won't notice
won't realize
what she has done
won't know
how her words shattered your 
already fragile, turbulent world
you stare out the window
unseeing
yet really understanding
for the first time
reality setting in
your dreams
hopes
for acceptance and understanding
gone
the last bit of innocence in you
withering away
you felt yourself
dying in the instant
the words fell from her lips
