Unkind words
Tossed out thoughtlessly
Aimed at a child
With nowhere to hide
Brush them off, you think
Pretend it doesn’t hurt
Don’t cry or she’ll know
She hit her mark
She didn’t mean it
he’ll say
It’s your fault
They’ll sigh
So
Pretend you don’t hear
It’s better that way
Smile to hide the pain
Laugh, ignore the insult
Yet every word stings
And pierces the soul
And leaves behind wounds
That never heal
