My head swims for freedom
But its given a swimming pool
Enclosed with drowning thoughts
Limited- replaced with your words.

This was no sea to explore,
No song to stick.
But few lines so horrid, so hurtful
As though horns had struck my mind
Leaving me in vein of those
Who have total control.

Soon i had forgotten all those good times
Soon i had forgotten all the bad as well
But there they were- your chorus
And that filled up all there ever was.
Some people underestimate the effect of words. Yes, actions are more reliable and definitely effective but words are not meaningless. Personally, what people say about me is the least of my concern because everyone is going to hate. But specific words get to me. This poem is about a *someone* who was almost my everything and i thought things would only get better. As soon as that someone said so and so, everything changed. This inspired this poem.

We should have known more,
we should have been prepared.
The man in you is gutteling,
the child in me that is scared.

We should have known better,
we should have known the facts.
The things that have died in our hands
are now living inside our chests.

We should have known to be silent
we should have know to make it through.
The stars that have dissapeared,
would help me find way back to you.

The dreadful words I've heard makes my heart ache.
I tried to block them out of my head.
The words chose to stay long and not leave instead.
I feel deep inside me I might just break.
Words spoken are not thought of as a mistake.
Evil words pierce my soul and I feel dead.
Though, my heart is still beating strong and red.
I wish the words would go away for God's sake.
The devil's words I heard, I still hear today.
Afraid, I sit alone in sorrow.
There's no remorse for what's being said.
I can only hope for a better tomorrow.
I wish I could stop the spiteful words from coming, I wish they wouldn't start.
The words I've heard, have scarred my heart.
