No more names
.............

I sit here crying
Your tags label me,
My skin crawls with disgust
My thoughts broken in two
My sanity.....
There's nothing left but dust.

From where I sit
My words go unheard,
All you ever see
All you ever hear
Are the names I never bore.

In this state I'm crippled
Your words hurt like spears,
****** words are all there is
They marked me
Tore me beyond recognition
These scars are but trophies
Trophies you think you won.


How much more do you want
Are my tears never enough,
From these words my heart bleeds
It bleeds to only be ignored
No more names I beg you
I am hurt beyond my limits.
