Silent Words I Speak
Quiet words I speak, for no words of hate I want,
They betray me with reporting me behind my back,
I am quiet with my head down, to hide my tears, I have had way too many years of pain.
Inflicting pain on my body, helps relieve my harm that others seem to give in spades, they must see me as just fun and games, the funny thing is, I really don't mind. When you have been laughed at for 44 years of your life, it becomes the everyday norm.
Scratches on my arm I see, the affect of others laughs, that's OK I understand. For Silent Words I speak, because you told me not to talk..
