Hurt Me


why do i always let you hurt me
       // how does your abuse cause me pain

my skin should be calloused
       and tough and protective
from the spot that your remarks
always manage to find

yet i still feel the knife's blade
as it sinks into my back
       // one more time

i try to look strong
like your actions don't affect me
but when i'm alone
       // i cry
