Hurting
It hurts me to say
That it hurts to be here.
Your words hurt more than my wounds
The words are sharper than you think they will be
If I had a chance, I'd say the most hurtful things to you.
But I am the smarter one and keep my mouth shut.
Why?
Because they will hurt me and you.
Your lies slither through my spine
& I cry until my pale green eyes can shut out the misery
Infuriated, I try to speak.
But I know you won't say anything but dejected lines.
