Tears

Tears

A Poem by Dark and Mysterious
"

Salty water slips down when no bruise outside 'cause the real bruise lies deep inside...

"
Pain inflicted
Beaten down
Tattered and broken
Never made a sound
Abused, cheated
Bruised and tortured
But still strong
Never showed any feeling
Braved it all
But a few harsh words
Scarred her heart
A tear escaped
She felt pain
It was her secret
For only her to know
'Cause the world didn't know
That she had a heart...

Short yet poignant.

I believe this poem could describe a vast majority of people. There are many forms of abuse, too many victims to count in this world. Every day sees that list grow larger and larger.

We all have hearts. Sometimes though we are forced to cut them out and put them somewhere free of pain. Unfortunately, if we leave them there too long, it ends with us being the ones to inflict familiar pains on the new batch of victims.

Quite thought provoking.

Hmmmm.....this speaks to me on a very deep level. I have found from my own experience and from my experiences dealing with those I have loved, that those who seem to have no feelings at all, are actually the ones with the softest hearts. Walls are built to protect what is too fragile to keep out in the open. This was very well done. It is raw and real and speaks volumes to me. Thank you for sharing, my friend.

Powerful, beautiful words. So easy to relate to and so true. I do have a suggestion though, on the line "tattered and broke", maybe change "broke" to "broken"? I don't know, it just sounds better to me...hehe...:D great poem!

I think this is great! In terms of abusive potential, Words are truly more dangerous than anything physical in this world
