The Power of Words and Pain

The Power of Words and Pain.

kids grow up to be a person to be a someone, 

knowing that pain is death why live,

words and pain isn't just something its a spirit.. how do you expected to have this in a world or lost

growing up as a kid wasn't easy, no ones life was easy, was yours

night is the dearth and light is our savior from our darkens fears

where told were strong and were instinct but were not,

why hold on to something that is already dead, death is to us as a knife is to a heart 

light is a water flowing in a wind care, to hold down the mess and give the glow of happiness 

i've been in the dark to long, having a beast live with you isn't easy to escape,

i dear hold on to the one's i love and i did but what about me,

my soul was taken but by whom, people say we who was hurt is fake and not loved but who is to say we aren't,

our skin color is a color of food do we judge them no, why destroy a person cause of color or background

i stand for all but do you... our sexuality is our birth and  our birth is our destine 

our color, our sexuality and our background is us that what makes us, .

please be kind and love all, pain and words hurt.
