People you love Who know your whole life They know how to get you They cut like a knife You feel great pain With every word they say When there are no words You hear their echoes prey This brings me to wonder If it ever occurs to you That others feel The same pain you do When you act in ways That cut like a knife Even towards people Who don't know your whole life I wonder if you hear yourself And some of the words you say And if you hear them Do you say them anyway I wonder if you know How hard it is to love you When you lash out like this Toward those that try to Love you in a moment Love you in a day Love you in a month Love you in their own way I wonder this because I have felt Some of the pain you have dealt Things you've said Others you've done All the while I'm trying to love The person you've become This brings me to wonder If my skin is too thick Because you don't see the blood Once my heart feels the ***** I try not to tell you As I can weild a deadly knife And by trying to hide it I may be causing more strife I don't want to hurt you Or throw things back in your face Please forgive these errors of mine My heart is in the right place September 15, 2009 Hello Poetry Exclusive
