Dialogue between the angry and the patient

“Shut the fuck up”

‘I need you to remind me why I'm loveable’

—-

“I will wrap my hands around your hair and throw you around this house”

‘Let me hug you until you can calm down’

—-

“Shut up! If you had just shut up you wouldn't have gotten it so bad”

“I dreamt of love in a yellow field on a blue summer evening,” Patience softly whispers.

“I dreamt of destroying you on a cool spring morn,” Anger cried. “No one just wakes up wanting to hurt someone.”

“Take responsibility for your loss, yourself, the pain,” Patience mourns, holding the anger until they beat patience black and blue.

“I love you. I forgive you. I dreamt of love on a cool summer—”

Black night full of red stars, a blur of a blue galaxy like a slice on a wrist hanging against the wall of space.

“Night full of blue sky, softly,” Black and blue said, as anger cried like a wounded cat, being cracked by the sun’s shadow.
