words can torture

Words honed by malice
Are razor sharp
And cut right through
The armor I'd carefully wrapped
Around my innermost soul

I carefully hid
My ragged wounds
Beneath sterile
White bandages
Never to show my pain

If you knew
The depth of my cuts
You'd do it again
Just for the fun
Of watching me bleed
