you used your powerful voice to shame and insult me
but when you stopped
my quiet and shy voice shamed me in your place
kept repeating all the mean things said
and now i hate me
but it was easier when the words came from you
but now that they are coming from within me the pain is worse
because i believe my quiet shy voice than your powerful one
Because your words i could ignore sometimes
But my words hit straight home
Because your words i could shrug off most times
But mine are curved onto my very being
And i now doubt everything i do
I doubt who i am
Because of the words within
