Sheley's World
Words*
Words , Once spoken,
can't be taken back,
and they lay there festering,
like rotten fish in a woven sack
and sticks and stones may break me,
but words also strike at my very heart,
and like an unseen destructive force,
they are slowly tearing me apart
I'm so sad, I'm so mad,
everybody is talking about me,
nasty things,cruel things,
why can't they just let it be?
and i know how i can end this misery,
simple a bottle and too many pills,
and these words will have blood on their hands,
one more of the unjust, unpunished and merciless kills
do you know how bad my life is?
go on; just spend a day in my shoes
i bet you'd be too scared to tread that path,
because ,like me, you might find you've everything to lose
and I've screamed out for help
and those closest to me sadly, struck out,
and I'm learning some very hard lessons
about life ,love and what sufferings is all about
but there's one thing I'm holding onto,
and this is the truth, and this i know,
your cruel and heartless words can't hurt me,
and this valley is where my seed of greatness will grow
so,talk,gossip,chatter all you like,
i am strong and i will learn to carry on,
because i know i am right,
and you undoubtedly,are cruel and so very wrong
and if i have to tread this path on my own,
then so be it, i will find the strength within,
i will learn how to manage these feelings,
i will learn how to start again, how to begin
Finally, i think friends should be friends
and if they're not, they're simply anchors who weigh you down,
and no more will they suck from my cup of kindness
because control is just another abstract noun
More fun Nothing
