Words Are Daggers

Words are your daggers!
Lacerates this heart
in vicious manner.
It’s hard to forget
like a bad daydream.

Scars aren’t clear.
See me smiling,
Heart is crying
in dark corner.

Turn me down! 
Hate me much!
Say it loud!

Don’t care
still I’ll…

Fly!

Good for you! If you fly you will be beyond the reach of the Daggers.
