hurt never hurt so much
it's in the songs we cry
in the silent screams
that let our demons
know
where we hide
pain causes more pain
like a dull and rusty knife
cutting away vestiges
of a heart that pretends
it beats
with life
wishes are lollies
in candy dishes
a folly
that they taste
as sweet as they look
dirt is thrown
diverting a hurt
to atone
shredding the pages
of an unread book
