"Heal" is a fake word
Means nothing to me
I will not heal from my fathers fingers
and violation
I will not heal from the sharp needle
Mama pushed into my arm
I will not heal from the words
Grandpa yells at me
I will not heal from the cuts i inflict on myself
The scars will always be there
They will not go away

Heal is an ugly word
Fake and full of false hope
You will not heal child
You will learn to deal with the things given to you
With the problems and sorrows
You will grow up
You will move on
but you will not heal.
