Don'T Let Me Hurt You! ! Poem by Becky Ginn

There are so many things i want to do
Things i want to say
But i can't express them with words
My mouth just won't obey

It's not that i don't want to tell you
I'm just scared of what you'll see
In the words that i want to give to you
I'm scared that you'll hate me

So i turn my fears and anger inwards
I reflect it back on me
My memories are imprinted deeply
My scars hidden lest you see

To some it may seem strange
A stupid thing to do
Something unnatural, to be feared
But I don't want it to hurt you...
