Heartless Words Poem by Emily Knight

My whole childhood was filled with hate
Parents yelling and no friends whatsoever
I hid most of the time and refused to come out
Because I didn’t want to face reality and know that you hated me

Your heartless words pierce my soul
Leaving me hating myself, and cursing my existence
After all that I’ve been through this should mean nothing
But it hurts so deep inside, like I’m slowly being murdered

Now I’m just in a different situation
Stuck somewhere I don’t want to be
But of course someone is here
To show me I’m not worthy

Your heartless words pierce my soul
Leaving me hating myself, and cursing my existence
After all that I’ve been through this should mean nothing
But it hurts so deep inside, like I’m slowly being murdered

I’ve cried out at least a million times
Trying to get God to hear me
But every time I try to do something right
You hold me down with evil words

Your heartless words pierce my soul
Leaving me hating myself, and cursing my existence
After all that I’ve been through this should mean nothing
But it hurts so deep inside, like I’m slowly being murdered
