[ I listen ]

I listen
Ever so carefully
To your judgment
a thought (according to you)
Just thrown
Into the air

But burns
Biting the flesh
Of my heart
Do you not care?
Your filth-filled words
Sour coated
stick to
the back of
my throat

I only wanted to reveal
My inner bruises 
Bring them to the surface
before you
so you could see 
maybe even heal 
Do you not understand?
I never asked
for your critical opinions
of my, now, revealed concealments
Why can't you just
take care of me?

    teenage mistreatment, oh how I despise it. This horror destroys souls of truly loving individuals, while the rest play hanky panky and call it love

    care

    An ugly face sometimes life wear
    Taking away hope and replace despair
    Wish I could only be there
    To comfort you and give you care
