WHY DO YOU HURT ME

You hurt me with your words.

They cut me inside oh so deep.

Your actions are worse.

They exisecerate me.

You don’t know how your words affect me.

Or you just don’t want to understand.

I try to stand tall, but I cry inside.

My soul mourns for your uncalled slander.

What have you done.

Your words make my heart ache.

Your actions makes me sick.

But together they paralyze me.

If I turn a blind eye you will deafen me.

If I turn  a deafen ear you will break me.

Why do you lie and make promises to me.

That you never truly intended on keeping.

Do you really not want to see me.

Why can’t you talk, talk to me.

Why can’t you walk, come walk beside me.
