Names

These names I've heard
They've been burned into my skin
Things like slut,
Whore,
Bitch,
Ugly,
Fatty,
Medusa,
Disgusting,
Worthless.
They say these things that hurt
They say "here comes medusa"
Tears roll down my eyes
I feel so disgusting
Searching for happiness
Where can I find it
I put on weight I know I have
Makeup doesn't solve the problems
It makes them worse
My mom asks me
"When's the baby due?"
I still a virgin
I'm still hurting
From all those nasty words
Burned into my arms
They hold me down
Like chains, these words
They restrict my breathing
I'm so disgusting
I'm such a slut
I'm so pathetic
Stop these names!
Stop them right now!
These words hurt
Can't you see what they do to me
They've scarred my arms,
Heart,
And mind.
These words hurt
They always will
They've become a part of me
Another piece of my heart,
GONE.
When did I become so numb
Everything hurts
That's all I feel
These names
In my head
Can't get them out
These names
Never stop
Never cease
Never even slow
These names
Will be the end
Of me
Rest in peace
These names
