Words Hurt Too

When you asked me
To be your gurl
I was the happiest person
In the whole world

Little did I know
You would test my worth
And make me feel so low

Though you didn't
Hit me with your fist
The ways your words hurt me
Are to many to list

Always taunting me
With bad names
Making me the center
Of your mind games

I tried hard to pretend
But your words,did offend
I was blind,and couldn't see
Just what your words
Were doing to me

I thought my love would cure
The bitterness in your heart
But all it did was
Make us drift farther apart

I did try hard
To stand by your side
Until you stripped me
Of all my pride

Tomorrow I will finally leave
Then maybe you can see
Just how much
Your words really hurt me

If You Are Being Abused,May God Grant You Courage To Seek Help
