I hear the rumors,
I hear the laughing,
I hear the little comments made.
You think I dont.

Everywhere I go
I hear the things they say.
They think they can hurt me with words.
They can’t.

One person has the power,
to hurt me with their words.
That person is you.
And you have.

You have torn me down.
I no longer stand tall against you.
I’ve fallen to my knees
With only you to help.
