Analysis of words



Sticks and stones may break my bones but words kill
Words have an powerful struct that kills you from the inside out
As you uttered those words I felt the electricity power through my heart into my torso and my brain suddenly went numb
The tears came Rolling down
My hands were shaking and than  I realized
I had no control over my body, I felt like going into a hole and never coming out again
I felt embarrassed, humiliated, scared , alone and broken
I tried to control my emotions, my thoughts ...
But your words affected me so much
I ran into my room and thought to myself did I really deserve that , I hate myself,I'm not worth it

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words kill
