Your Words

You once told me that words were your weapons,
but I never thought you would use them against me.
I never thought I would feel the piercing in my belly or the cut on my cheek.

So hateful
So strong,
Your WORDS.

I thought we were to love one another and
accept our faults and imperfections.
But it seems as though your weapons
have caused you to not accept me.

So hateful
So strong,
Your WORDS.

I never thought I could love you as much as I do,
yet my heart aches from your words.
I try to get over it,
but in my mind I hear your words.

So hateful
So strong,

YOUR WORDS.
