'Words...' By: Jules L. Gonzales

Words, words, that are etched into my skin;

Words, that I hear everyday and every night;

Words, that have always destroyed me from within.

What you have said has changed how I look at myself;

And maybe you didnt mean it but it did hurt;

And every time you say something it adds to the shelf.

Words, they do have an impact on someone;

Words, they dont go unheard and they do hurt;

Words, hold enough power to cause someone to pick up a gun;

I wish we would all stop even if it's for a minute and think;

That words can and do have an affect on someone;

Because every time you say somethings like that it will sink.

Words, do affected how we see ourselves and others;

Words, they affect the things we and they affect how we feel;

Words, you never know how often they hear them from fathers and mothers.

The things that we use to hurt, the things that you always say;

Ugly, Stupid, Worthless,Mistake, Reject;

Will affect us, then we see ourselves this way.

Words, Can really really bruise and burn and cut deep;

Loser, Whore, Creep, Slut, Nerd, Bitch, Freak;

Words, stay in my head and my heart, so I hope that I don't fall apart and just fall asleep.
