How Deep They Hurt

Why are some, so cruel with words, do they not understand, how deep they hurt. Never giving thought, how sharp their tongue, and it's not easy, repairing the damage done. One day to answer, maybe not to me, but that day will come, then you will see.

Many times it is easier to work with kids who are physically abused than those who were vebally abused. Wounds heal. but the wounds inside take much longer. People put their mouth in gear before their brain is engaged. God Bless. Vince

Words are the most damaging weapon we possess, and can also be the most rewarding gift we can give. All truth in your poetry this evening, always, Ron
