Words hurt


WORDS CAN HURT They are mean they can kill without feeling a thing they waste a fruitful land they scout for insecure homes and render the host homeless yet host the homeless host as hostage and torture them with weapon fashioned for them designing their skin with scars and patting their backs with hurt and pain they are reckless wreckers that wrecks lives like castle and give them bitter pills for words keep firing until the clip is empty until the heart is outlined with bullet of pain.... worthless,ugly,fat,stupid,unreal,skinny... where the words that plunge through her chest they became knives piercing through all the layers of her skin adding all the negative words subtracting all positivity dividing happiness and multiplying sadness no longer in field but at the sideline she feels sidelined. words like little grenade turn to a bigger explosion inside her.... eventually,she hears this verbal abuse in her voice now she's become her own monster her worst enemy they fight round the clock yet she is stock they can't see that it's eaten her up inside it was too much... until she gave herself to free herself... and they said....it was but a joke...... some people are unsecure they look for love to cure their flaws,low self esteem,inferiority complex they need love as confidence to stand on....but all they got is or was the T.H.U.G speech.....I mean THE HATE U GIVE speech..... please taste your words before you spew it out.... don't be a mis-words words hurt.... @J SERIES.
