Every Word

By Katie •
You make me cry at night
When no one is around
I try to keep it to myself
But my heart still hits the ground
There is no where I can run
There is nothing I can do
All I know right now
Is that I'm stuck here
With you
In your heart for me there's love
And in mine there's love for you
But all those words
They tear me up
So insensitive and cruel
I don't know if you notice
That those words you say
Can hurt
Or that they make me hate you more
In heart
Beneath my shirt
But when you say these
Words of hate
All I can think about
"Please take me far away from here."
My heart continually shouts
So if you could
Keep those things inside
That really don't need to be heard
For my hate for you grows
Stronger after
Every single
Word
