Hurt People


    Maybe he was important to her story?


    But she never knew his name.


    And he never kissed her face.. .


    So it probably didn''t matter, who knows?


    But maybe he was important to her story.


    That guy she can''t picture.


    Who never met her, ever.


    But holds half her DNA.


    And maybe he was important too. The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.


    Like the man he tried to replace.


    Almost her father


    In name and in face.


    But he wasn''t perfect either.


    He cracked her fragile shell.


    She wasn''t sure how it happened


    So she felt she couldn''t tell.


    Maybe he was important to her story too


    The first guy she thought she loved.


    Who kissed her face, called her names


    And touched her until she was surely DONE.


    Maybe he also mattered to her tale.


    The first man to fight the bullies


    In her head and out of doors


    Who told her not to put up with them any more.


    He gets a mention too :


    The one who said she was a stunning work of art


    Who gained nothing from his saying


    But closed a crack in her small strained heart.


    Maybe he deserves a chapter here


    Who let her learn that weakness can be strength.


    She learned to cry she learned to fight


    Accidentally, in the shelter of his wings.


    Hey! She is in here too :


    The person who knew everything about her.


    And still said with a hug and all her truth,


    ''I wanted you to know, that I am proud of you.''


    You might have a chapter too


    Without you even knowing.


    Which she may have written down


    with no emotion showing.


    Hopefully this story ends with a smile on her face


    Because she deserves it, and you do too.


    Just


    like everybody else


    In this broken hearted place.
