Word scars
I have never felt so much pain
Even thought there is no physical proof
My confidence is caving in like a roof
But worst of all, only words heal words.
"Ugly, worthless" is healed with
"Beauty and purpose"
Pain deep in the brain
It's easier to contain
You can try to refrain but the words crash like waves.
Again. Again. Again.
