It is so hard to stay away even though circumstances demand I must. So Here I am with my heart on my sleeve again. Just a quick visit to get an annoying set of words off my brain and out of my heart.
Hedgehog in reverse
It is such a curse
Deeper each day
The barbs don’t go away.
Piercing deeper than deep
Through my brain they seep
Sometimes they make me fall
Always they sting and make me small.
I close my mind to fears
When verbal barbs assault my ears
There is no where I can go
There is just no escape I know
