A tear for every hurtful saying
A tear or two for every name
Another for each accusation
Angry words of pain.

A tear for all I do is wrong
A second for all I can't do right
Another, for the tone in your voice
For this I cry tears all night.

A tear for the night before
A second for all the things you said
Another because my eyes are sore
Angry words you don't regret.

I read your poem because there were no replies, and i know when i write something i like feedback. I loved your poem, and i can relate to it. And relating to a poem is what makes it a good poem. Well done!!!

I don't think some people realize how hurt-
ful words can be.It can be worse then them
hitting you.I think it leaves a hole in
your heart.I have something someone e-mailed
about this subject.It's called the fence.If
you would like to read it,you can e-mail and
I will try to find it for you.I don't know
if I saved it though.Well happy writing.

I can relate to this, too. Hurtful words can really wear you down.

How is it that we tolerate such behaviors? Seems wrong in retrospect, doesn't it?
