Words are a terrible thing.

Terrible and great.

They hurt, break, tear apart.

But can uplift, ease pain, calm.

So how can so many little words

make you feel so small and insignificant?

Or build your ego and help you grow?

Why do words matter so much?

What about the words that cause holes in your heart?

People say "time heals all wounds."

But its not true.

Because no matter what,

no matter how you heal,

there is still the tug where the words dug into you.

You remember the words,

you remember how they made you feel.

Time can't erase that.

Never will be able to.

You remember the pain.

And you would give anything to never feel like that again.

Forgiveness.

Again and again.

Words hurt.

Plain and simple.

Time will never change that.
