Hurt
People love to hurt.
We must because we do things
That only hurt ourselves.
We try and fix other’s damage,
Only to mutilate ourselves.
Trying to fix someone
Is the most damaging thing we can do.
Because we might actually fix them,
But they break us.
They take their fixedness to another person
Leaving us a broken and alone fixer.
But we don’t learn,
Because when they come back
Broken again,
We fix them again,
Only for them to break us again.
So,
People must love to hurt,
Or else we would learn
That sometimes broken people,
Like to be broken,
Because,
People love to hurt.
But we keep fixing them,
Because,
People love to hurt.
