#hurtfulwords
I couldn't remember the last time i held a pen. As quick as a shooting star, I could write about the world swiftly, i can rove my fingers along with imaginative mind yet in endless strikes of the sharpest words, I had lost the trajectory that once burned bright A l'aide, à l'aide. Je suis en train de le perdre

Lost Dream
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.

Devil’s chorus
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.

Go back
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.
