Killed by a word.

A Poem by Jess Holden

A short poem about how one word can change you.

You killed me with a word.

One little word,
That stung like a million needles,

One little word,
That destroyed my hope for a future.

One little word,
That infected my soul and destroyed my dreams.

One little word,
Made me hate you more.

One little word,
Ended a life tonight.

One little word...

That's all it ever takes.
