blunt: adjective 1. (of a knife, pencil, etc.) having a worn-down edge or point; not sharp. having a flat or rounded end. 2. (of a person or remark) uncompromisingly forthright. ---------------------- Today, my mom called me blunt. And I have to admit that it's true My thoughts and words are blunt and can hit you like a rock But, I realized I am also blunt. I was once quick and sharp, Ready to take on the world and fight Fight like hell Yet now, I can't My mind isn't as strong- willed as it used to be My body isn't as tough as it used to be They're tired of fighting I'm tired of fighting Years of seeing horror and death, You become used to it Years of fighting, You get too battered to stand up once more and fight. I've become blunt and unbelievably tired. Maybe. I should... Just.... Rest.........
