Words.

They stare.

They talk.

They even glare.

But what bothers me the most, is that I am aware.

The hatred. 

The comments.

The words...

I just can't take it anymore. 

I want to fly away like all of the birds.

But I can't. 

I have to stand my ground.

Fight my battles.

Ignore the sound.

                                        After all, 

                                                 They're just words.

  • Can't you see?

    The words.

    The comments.

    The stares...

    It all reminds me that no one cares. 

    Can't you see?

    I'm not okay.

    Because my thoughts remind me that I am not pleased with myself.

  • Why?

    Have you ever felt the weight of an unspoken word?

    Because I sure have.

    The word “Why” can mean a lot of things…

    But for me, it means Why do I feel this way?

  • Forgotten

    I am the forgotten dead.

    I have no friends and no roof over my head.

    I am the forgotten girl that you only hear about in stories and books.
