Old Hurt

I wrote this with great hurt from a past I can not forget

It happened long ago
A dark secret with sorrow
Harsh words tossed about
Echoes in my head sprout
Words hurt worse than a slap
In shadows forever trapped
Next to me came more pain
What he did was insane
My body is mine, to be left alone
Sad thing is I couldn’t even run home
Make it all go away so I can rest
Let me get this off my chest
