words that hurt

126 11 7
By hartofgold

words cut sharper than knives
scar deeper than bullets.

words hurt more than broken
bones
punish more than angry belts.

"sticks and stones may break my bones
but
words will never hurt me"
whoever said that
must've been
stupid,
or freaking
superman.

words hurt more than any amount of
pushes
shoves
punches.

whore.
slut.
bitch.
stupid.

i'd rather cut off my own
toe

than have to hear you say that to me
again.

there are the distractions, sure-
physical acts to distract from the
verbal ones

plenty to choose from-
knives
razors
pills

who knows, i'm creative.

but in the end, that's all that they are-

distractions.

and in the end, you win
if i cut, or swallow. it's what you want.

you are sick, and twisted, and i admit that.
so do you.

it doesn't make your words any less painful.

just
shut
your
damn
mouth.
