Hidden Bruises
He cuts her with his words of hate
She has no bruises to hide
Her scars are there but never show
She carries them deep inside
He calls her stupid, a worthless girl
It's been that way for years
Some nights she cries herself to sleep
While drowning in her tears
Her self-esteem is all but gone
He's stripped her of her shame
Keeping her an empty shell
Her soul now broken and maim
And though he's never raised his hand
His abuse is easy to find
She sees the world with hollow eyes
As he tries to control her mind
He cuts her with his words of hate
She has no bruises to hide
What we see is all that's left
For a piece of her has died
