Write about what hurts, they say
but words are not a game to play
you dot your i’s and cross your t’s
with broken hearts and shattered dreams
they say to write down what you feel
but writing things can make them real
the words can come alive at night
to fill your dreams and haunt your life
express yourself, what lies in you
but what’s inside can hurt you, too.
