WILLINGNESS
Willingness , I guess, is to agree. To take part in something . You see?
Or would it be to refuse? Not to account, but to accuse?
That’s not it . Check Mr Websters terms. Or would it be condition?
Apologies. Such regrets you confess. Intoxication spills from your breath. I bite my tongue rather than slit your throat.
Words are powerful weapons. In case you didn’t know.
I’m not heartless. It’s turned to stone. Cold and icy refusing to ever let love back in.
Willingness, must we accept? The price paid and the tears wept.
