Every word a slice I wince!
When does it end? where to begin?
A whisper sharp cut beneath the skin
Cut!
A song that splinters till it's sung
You start you won I'm already done"You keep going until I'm gone"
Carve!
Little jabs that break the peace
My soul my heart they you fleece!
A thousand blades hidden in every attack
An ambush leaving scars invisible on my back!
Slice!
Death by a thousand cuts
Rip out my guts
A death so slow
Words can do what fists don't show
In every line that they have drawn
Pieces of me are nearly gone
How could I possibley know what to say
When I'm naive and you practice day after day!
Stab!
Thin as paper every scar
How did I? why did I? let it get this far
Battles of words leave unseen marks
On and off the lights and darks
Staining what I used to know
Now it's buried deep below
Slash!
Disguised digs don't let me up
Every word a brand new cut
The shovel your tongue the joke me the butt
Every engagement is always finely crafted
Can't stop until your will into mine is grafted"All of your words are always carefully drafted"
Scratch!
You pry! A reply!
Shoot it down before
It leaves ground
Before it flies
I die little more inside
Every time
Asking myself why
I even tried
Slowly learn you can't
See my side!
Swipe!
But from these shards I'll rise anew
A brighter path my heart breaks through
With every notch more resilience found
My resolute truths I stand my ground
No longer defined by pain's cruel track
Etched I'm my soul; I'll never look back
I Will Rise!
Thin as paper every scar!
How did I? Why did I? let it get this far!
Battles of words with unseen marks
On and off the lights the dark stays dark!
The stains are nearly gone!
Pieces of me are nearly gone!
Pieces of me are nearly gone!
And I don't know
What to say!
