Words That Follow

No one knows how much words can hurt, until they are hurt by them, too.

Living the life of doubt in a world of hate and crime. Nothing can be said or done without a judge to comment. Hanging back to stay out of the way, but couldn't move fast enough. Getting hit in the face with the words of criticizers. Seeing the body of someone once known to just see it as something old. Watching the words swim around in the air like butterflies, but getting hit with each one while it feels like a million bee stings. Walking away from each hurtful word to just get stabbed in the back. Not turning around as to keep my head held high.

I just read all of your poems and each and every one of them are so beautiful and meaningful; despite their message, no matter how negative; they definitely had an impact on me. keep writing; you are amazing and have a very developed perspective of life and you seem like someone who has been hurt quite a lot. The best you can do now is write about it and inspire others.

Thank you so much. I do enjoy writing and it helps me to put my feelings down in words.
