The Heart-stabbing Words

The heartstabbing words,
The hateful stares,
The humiliating tags,
Can’t face it anymore.
                                                           
The dried tears,
The numb mind,
The bleeding heart,
Can’t take it anymore.
                                   
The nasty opinions,
The stiff mindsets,
The wounding judgements,
Can’t break it anymore.
                                   
The vibrant smile,
The bubbly excitement,
The notorious mischiefs,
Can’t fake it anymore.
                                   
I just…can’t make it anymore!
