I'm hurting

Things said

You say " your rude, stupid, retarded, and selfish."

I tell " I'm sorry, I know, I figured, and ok."

You don't see me hurt over your words

But they hurt like knives

They pierce my heart, skin, and mind

I walk as if I'm ok

When in reality I'm dying inside

But you don't see that

You are too busy hurting me

To realize one day I won't be here

I won't be breathing

And guilt will wash over you

Knowing this might not have happened

If you had just paid attention

Or never said those words

But now I see a light

It's pretty bright

But I know what it is

I hope you know those words hurt

But you won't hurt me anymore

I'm free and

No longer alive
