The worst way to hurt someone is with your words. The pain from an injury subsides, but the human language cuts so deeply into the flesh that sometimes, it can never be healed. By now, I should know this from experience... so why would I make the same fucking mistake? To any one who I have hurt with my words, I am so deeply sorry. To those who I haven't, I pray that I never will. These are the days that we should be more mature; a small petty comment can be so misconstrued and elevate into something so horrible, so hurtful, that you are not quite sure how it got so far. This is why I will never understand the child saying: "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me." It's a nice way to think, but it just isn't true. Especially when it comes to girls... guys can fight it out and it's over, but girls? No... we become so emotionally attached that our pain and hurt always keeps that one little thing right there in the back of our heads. It's time for a change. I need to confront my problems myself instead of harboring them in my heart and becoming bitter. I need to handle my problems instead of letting them handle me. My heart weighs heavy now, and I just hope that I can make things better...
