Unkind words
Beating my spirit
Into submission
Scratching broken feelings
Across my hollow bones
Twisting thoughts
Across blackened rainbows
Turning blood into stone
To protect my dying heart

Very dark and nice.

a good poem penned - ah captain, sometimes those unkind ones find us, we have to grin and bear them then kick them into touch.

Hard emotions expressed in this quick listing. There are times when those words bring points into focus, if only to protect self. Good work here. ~Pamela
