"sticks and stones
may break my bones,
but words
will never hurt me"
DON'T YOU BELIEVE IT--
words
i've heard all my life
come back to haunt me
you're ugly/fat/stupid
you'll never amount to anything
words
meant to make me feel shame
worthless/loser/user/abuser
and you'll never change
i'm disgusted with you
words
batter my mind, bruise my soul
and threaten to crush me
into oblivion...
powerful weapons,
words
it would have been
better if you'd
taken a knife and
stabbed me
than verbally assaulted me with...
words

*tears*

These words hurt... I can feel it. But know, my friend, that there are people who care for you, who will pray for you, who love you!

You and your sister are having a bad day today. Why? Was it just the family reunion? Of is something else happening to bring up your anguish?

Like I said to your sister I will say to you, I am sorry that you are in pain. Your family members are sick people. Learn from their mistakes and be a better person than they are.

Too many children grow up in homes like this. So sad, but remember you are today, what YOU decided to do with your life. Your present and your future, you are in charge of. A successful life is the best revenge. Love to you both.

i remember those words, too, karla, and i will always remember the look of shock and hurt on your face when our oldest sister said that "you would always be a loser, user, and abuser, and you'll never change". it about destroyed me, too, and i nearly committed suicide because of it (but was scared to carry out the suicide; for fear of what it would do to daddy). thank god god intervened when i needed him most; i am still alive today, and i am very glad i am! (((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) and love, your twin, karen lynn. :( >tears, tears, tears <

I never believed that saying, either!!! Words are mighty arrows, can pierce and hurt, or be like love arrows. I cry with you, friend....stay strong...
