Pain
That knife
Stained
Tainted
With blood of the pained
Those words
Spoken
Screamed
To the heartbroken
That voice
Haunts
Tortures
Teases and Taunts
These nightmares
Dark
Terrifying
Hate leaving it's mark
Back stabbed
With that knife
Made of those words
Spoken by that voice
That caused these nightmares

Fantastic! So straight-forward and to the point. (No pun intended) Worded very well and the imagery was so real. A great read about betrayal.
This was a very wonderfully written poem. I enjoyed this one greatly. You got to the point and didnt drag on with details that left the reader saying, "I get it!"
Well done
Doing something we will always regret, saying things we wish were not spoken, seeing something we will never forget. I like it:)
