A Sentence Can Crush My Reality – Written June 2006 (Aged 31)

A Sentence Can Crush My Reality

i am massacred by remark
a sentence,
can tear me apart
and when looking at my deckchair eyes
the pain,
and the past elegantly collide
i am felled a comment
strung up,
by a jibe
and when looking at my bare bones
i fail so easily inside
but people are cruel
ad think nothing,
ot taking you down a peg or two
they look at me and my past
and think, he has the strength to take it
so they nail me to the pirate mast
but i cannot fake it
or barely sometimes make it
that resolve, they so easily beat it
i am massacred by their insensitivity
