Unmarked bruises
We all have bruises and hurts
Some cut in deeper than the rest
Scarring us forever
A gash, a scar, a bleeding scrape
Evoke immediate sympathy
And while they hurt, in the now
They fade away, pretty often
But other scars leave no signs
On our bodies, and yet
Hurt and gnaw at our soul
With unmarked bruises, painful forever

Concrete Hurt
Concrete hurt
In bruises
In scars
On realms
Of skins
Deeper damages
Slaughtering
The heart
You slay
This value
He cannot
Hurt you back

Everything Except Nothing
I am tired of running
Running away from Everything
Everything except nothing
I run away from my Hopes and Dreams
Only because I am afraid of having them crash down on me
It would hurt so bad
Just to get off the ground will cause scars
It hurt like hell when I fell on my ass
Bruises are seen everywhere
That is why I run
I run until I am out of breath
Sweat dropping from my eyebrows
Now knowing where I am
Or where I will end up
Not even a little bravery inside of me
Just all fear
Fear of all the hurt and pain in my life
So I just run
Run
Run
Run Away
From Everything except Nothing

Pain and Hurt
born in to pain and hurt
growing in pain and hurt
living in pain and hurt
sleeping in pain and hurt
waking in pain and hurt
cuting in pain and hurt
bleeding in pain and hurt
crying in pain and hurt
i know nothing other then pain and hurt
i use drugs to end the pain and hurt
but all i get is pain and hurt
is there nothing other then pain and hurt
in this painful and hurtful world?

Pretty Girls Aint Smart.
Cat calls and whistle.
The only thing I hear
As I walk down the street.
Girls telling me he only likes me,
Because of the size of my chest.
And my pretty face.
They say it just to be mean,
But there words cut deep.
Deeper then the cuts on my wrists.
People are amazed when I talk.
Because they see my face,
And cant believe I’m smart.
There stereotypes hurt.
They hurt more then the bruises
That I inflict upon myself.
We live in a world where pretty girls
Can never be smart
And men abuse with eyes and words.
I feel I stand alone,
In my fight for equality
And alone I fall.
I have admitted my defeat.
And I live a life of idiotic stupidity.
Only for the enjoyment of many.

It Hurts
That hurt.
That hurt to.
Again, that hurt.
Please stop, that hurt.
Why are you hurting me?
What did I ever do to you?
Stop hurting me I beg you, please.
Do you not hear me as you scar me again? Stop speaking so angrily, so smug.
Every time you hurt me with your words, It hurts, more than you'd think.
So please stop hurting me.
Please no more.
It hurts.
I hurt.

Romance Message
You ask for romance message
Romance is not just typing word
I will try to type and
My hearting is beating faster
Which you have asked
Where and why we both meet here
We havent a clue either exit
But now I do know
You real and you the one
Which I been searching for all my life
I know I feel I want and only you
Without you my soul wont survive a day
My love, how can I prove it to you?
My final two words
Forever yours
Be my one
Or you will hurt me
Not like bruises easy to heal

Inside Your Scars
Inside your scars grows a new flower,
After a miserable long pitch-dark night,
After the cruel betrayal hour,
Bright colors glisten in the new morning light.
Your wound itches hurt and bleed,
But from your scarring and tears, and pains,
Will magically grow love’s eternal seed,
and bloom white flowers in spring’s rains.
The countless bruises make you stronger,
Through this temporary hardship,
you learned perseverance, endurance, patience,
Just wait, my friend, a little longer,
You soon will shine in His glorious presence.

The Stones Under My Feet
sometimes the stones amaze me
as i tread upon them
they hurt and they look at me
as though asking questions
what is it that hurts you most?
i like to answer but they are all too numb i think
to understand any word that i say
sometimes i like to hurt them in retaliation
but i know i wouldn't work
there is no way that they will say they get hurt
there is nowhere
where i can hurt any stone that i throw to the sea
a stone is gone but not forever
as though it has its own feet and comes back to me
asking the question again: what is it that hurts you most?
i know this vengeance
there is no way that i will tell them
my secret too is like a stone and it will come back to you
without any word, still, silent, sagacious.

All Is Fair In Love and War
you're always on my mind.
your memory haunts me,
it hurts me inside.
You found your way to my heart,
you hurt me so deeply,
That everyday is tears me apart.
You found what you wanted,
You took what you could get.
I've put forth all my effort,
I gave you my best bet.
You act as I am nothing,
Yet I should give you my all.
This love really hurts,
It was a hard fall.
I want you forever,
I want to give you my best.
Yet I get nothing in return,
You make me feel like a pest.
You're only there when you need me,
And id never let you cry alone.
But I do just that every night,
Damn your heart is like a stone.
I've done all I could,
I've given it my best.
I sure as hell can say,
You've really put me to the test.
Now I'll just walk away with my A plus,
And let you hurt over the rest.
P.S.-
Maybe after some time,
You'll look over this rhyme,
And see that all is fair in love and war,
Then you'll hurt alittle more.

Does It Hurt
Does it hurt to know
that aren't there
to dry my tears
when my heart breaks.
Does it hurt to know
that you won't be there
to help my dress for my senior prom
or help to fix my hair.
Does it hurt to know
that you won't be there
to see me walk across the field
and recieve my diploma on graduation day.
Does it hurt to know
that you won't be there
to see me off to college
and see me fly away.
Does it hurt to know
that you will never
hear me say
I love you mom.
Does it hurt to know
that you won't be there
to see me walk down the aisle
and marry the man of my dreams.
Well it hurts me
to know that
you won't be there
for any of those things.
It hurts me to know
that you won't be there
to say i love you
and i'm proud of you.
It hurts me to know
that you won't be there
for those big moments
that will change my life.
It hurts me the most
to know that
you will never be there
and that i no longer have a mother.

Every Little Bit Hurts
Every little bit hurts,
Every little bit hurts..
Every night I cry,
every night I sigh,
every night I wonder why
you treat me cold,
yet you won't let me go.
every little hurt counts,
every little hurt counts,
you say you're coming home,
yet you never phone,
leave me all alone,
my love is strong for you,
I'd do wrong for you.
I can't take this loneliness you've given me.
I can't go on giving m life away.
Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you all the things you wanted before,
if you will stay with me.
Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts
To you I'm a toy and you're the boy,
who has to say when i should play.
yet you hurt me, desert me.
Why ya hurt me baby?
why ya hurt me baby?
Oh, come back to me,
darling you'll see,
I can give you all the things that you wanted before.
if you will stay with me.
Every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts,
every little bit hurts.

Bully's Hurt
Bullys hurt everyone in a way
From pyhsical actions to what they say
Bullys never see
how big the scar is
That they leave
Deeply hurt they looking for Empathy!
Looking one who can share Sympathy!
But when comes short, he sighs
All alone he Cries
Bullys dont even care
or notice
On how everyone agrees
On how mean they seem

Goodbye
I hate the word goodbye
It makes the angels cry
But I've been hurt too many times
Now the time for fair well is ripe
I hate the word goodbye
It always makes me cry
But you've also made me cry
You've done it so many times
Though there were times when you made me smile
During the happiest days of my life
When I had to hold forever
You were the best and you made me better
But the bonds broke and you let me go
I was in pain and left all alone
Your face still holds that memory
My heart still holds that agony
So it's better we say goodbye
Its better that the angels cry
Its better that you go your way
And its better that I go mine
It hurts me now to see you stay
And you've hurt me so many times
It's a shame what could have been
It's a shame what couldn't be
But the biggest shame this time
Is the very fact that I tried
Some things just can't be understood
In every sense of the word
And when I tried to comprehend you
It proved to be not of any worth
We once said goodbye
But the angels didn't cry
They always knew it was for the better
Although it wouldn't be forever
It felt like it was
So here I say the word I hate
But I'll say it a softer way
It's time we say goodbye
It's time that the angels cry
Better to cry once rather than forever
You would hurt again all over
And keep me crying forever
So the time for goodbye is ripe
And forever I say goodbye
And though the angels might cry
You have hurt me too many times
Better they cry once rather than forever
Goodbye my love, goodbye forever

Forever Not Yours
Hold me tight
This is a lonely night
And Ive hurt you baby
Because you are my light
Make me strong
Just like you make me weak
When your hands reach out for me
Even in your sleep
Ill soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It wont be long now
Forever not yours
Memories they keep coming through
The good ones hurt more
Than the bad ones do
The days were high
And the nights were deep
And I miss you baby
I miss you baby
Ill soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It wont be long now
Forever not yours
Ill soon be gone now
It wont be long now
Forever not
Forever not yours
Ill soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It wont be long now
Forever not yours
Ill soon be gone now
Forever not yours
It wont be long now
Forever not yours

A Paradox of Joy...
a boy was hurt
but he could not just be a boy forever
a man too is hurt
but he could not just be a man forever
and so the hurt or whatever you name it
pain, grief, trauma
psychosis
or simply sadness
with the poetic twist of a gentle lamentation
cannot be forever that boy or that man
there is something divine in all these
gifts as you may wish
there is something that polishes that rough stone
turn it into a very precious diamond
like the story of the clam and
its pearl
that sadness exist
but sadness cannot be sadness forever
hope, that is the wish
there is no permanence in all of these
wait, from this door to the stair and to the horizon of a black line
someone comes, it is something bringing everything for you
exalt, exalt
in extreme silence....

Im Ok
Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never know just where to turn for shelter from the storm
Hurt me to see the pain across my mothers face
Everytime my fathers fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon
Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday
And Im ok
I often wonder why I carry all this guilt
When its you that helped me put up all these walls Ive built
Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door
The echo of a broken child screaming please no more
Daddy, dont you understand the damage you have done
To you its just a memory, but for me it still lives on
Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so, so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday
Its not so easy to forget
All the lines you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And every day Im afraid to come home
In fear of what I might see there
Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake I look back to yesterday
And Im ok
Im ok

Does Love Hurt?
A lot of people believe
That love is the most painful feeling
They just believe that
Love hurts
Does love hurts?
Love doesn't hurt at all
Love is the most wonderful feeling on earth
With this you feel protected
Love gives you a suiting feeling
Loves takes you to wonderful places
Who says love hurts?
Love gives you passion
Love makes you reach the stars
Love smells like freshly bloomed flowers
Love makes you swim the deepest ocean
Love makes you move mountains
Love builds bridges..
Love is Love
So you think that
Loving someone who doesn't love you back hurts?
Loving somebody who loves another hurts
Loving nobody at all hurts?
Being loved by nobody hurts?
So love does hurt?
I don't think so
Falling out of love hurts
Betrayal hurts
Not having love hurts
Love doesn't hurt

Falling in snow on a frosty Evening
I’ve fallen and I bruised my rump.
I was out shoveling near the stump.
I was trying to get the driveway free.
A plow had just come by, you see.
I had a shovelful to toss
When suddenly, my footing lost,
I was sailing in the air
destined for the snow pile there.
I have bruises on both knees
My ribs are sore, it hurts to sneeze.
I think I should have stayed inside
And worst of all -It hurt my pride.

My Hate
Not mine, she is
She used to be my sugar
He has stolen her forever from me
Nobody she is, nobody
Not even a stranger
I regret that I loved her so much
Since, she never really deserved my love
I was just a doll, which she used
It was not love, not care
Although, I completely cannot blame her
Since, I myself actually wanted to be used
This game which she played with me, actually did hurt
At the end it proved, that she is a player
Who loves, only to pass time
It hurts me, really hurts me
How can a girl like her, ever understand my pain?
Yes, she never was worth, the trouble I took to love her
Truly, I thought that forever I possibly could spend rest of my life with her
She turned me into a joke
I hate her for this, she wanted my hate
Now, she has actually gotten it.
