Torn

Weakness takes over, it hurts to breathe,
Every little word stings, every sneer hurts.
Torn, torn, the heart hurts more than anything.
Those glaring eyes, those mocking smiles,
Every second painfully passing by,
Torn, torn, the pain of the heart, the worst pain of all.
Tears give in to sorrow, flow silently like rivers,
Every reassuring glance is cast aside,
Torn, torn, emotionally not physically.
Body fails to move, can't feel the heart's pain,
After all it was words not blows that hit it,
Torn, torn, the heart breaks and no one ever knows.

i know.
my heart hurts too.
and it's been hurting for a long time.
after a while, nothing is funny.

but then you find a friend to cheer you up, to lift your drooping smile, to...
help you back on your feet.

and then your life is a-okay. but it still hurts under all those layers.
