Spreading Joy.... need some?
... blacken eyes,
twisted arms and
broken bones heal with time


yet


... inside
afterwords smolder
in time-hidden from
unsuspected eyes


... utterance
pluck heart-strings
though bruised "HOPE" keeps
embracing with undying
love-


... love
not once given
in return


can anyone see/
does anyone know


... the hurt
the damage from
venom spat?


... it’s vicious
impact double-edged
verbiage attack


"don’t nobody want your ***... but me"


... rip through flesh
soul-deep to the core


... inwords bleeding
YOU’RE WORTHLESS!
thoroughly collapsing self-esteem


"your *** was nothing before you met me"


... sting
eardrums and
rattle psyche ‘til
words ring true.


can anyone see/
does anyone know


... afterwords
critical affects
‘cept we?





dedicated to those silently abused
