This poem is done in 2 parts, the italicized part, and the regularly typed part. It's two different views. The italicized portions are what I'm feeling, what is being thought, while the normally written part is written as if it is someone on the outside. 2 different points of view if that makes any sense.... If not, you'll see what I mean.
Figure it out
I'm done trying
I can't say anything
I'm closing off
I say something
I hurt someone
Is the truth
Really what is wanted now?
People want
But do they think?
Want the truth
But don't want the words
Want the thought
But don't want the results
Want the knowledge
But not the whole sentence
Words hurt
It's true enough
But those you love
Who love you
Are the only ones
You can trust
To tell you what you don't want to hear
Yet what is needed
Deal with it
Accept it
Take it in
And love those who said
The words to let you know
To make you stronger
Yet striking back
Shouldn't be done
They loved you enough to say
What you needed to hear
Pushing back
Will close them off
Closing off
Hurting too much
Done helping
What more can be done
When I say something
I hurt someone
No more hurting
No more pain
I'm done saying
Just figure it out
Think, Write, Dream on!
