Go for the Hurt

Lying on the floor black and blue
My selfish side cries out
My inner weakness will control you
That's what happens when eyes lie
When smiles fade and tears fall
Blood paths burst with bits of Hurt meant for
you
My walls can't be pierced when I'm in fight or flight mode
Wrong or right
This heart locked tight
Grasping my last bit of light You can't touch.
I won't be captured
I won't be caged again
I know how to hit. My words
slapping hard.
I know the look of disgust and how to wear it.
I know how to tear you down and just how long to keep you there.



If only that were me. I won't ever hurt you. Just stop hurting me.
