Challenge
Write about physical or emotional pain without using the word pain at all.
Inside Out
Excruciating agony
Laces through my heart.
Your words like barbs
Amplifying the force.
Your tongue is a weapon,
And my heart is the target,
Taking aim with precision
To shoot through my confidence.
But watch out for the recoil
For your words
May bite back at you,
Forcing you to feel as I do.
Weak,
Ashamed,
Suffering,
From the inside out.
