Laughed in the face
Ever been there?

The stench of evil
ligering on the breath
of those
in place to
intimidate you

Yet where are you?
All vunerable
heart trampled on
guard down

And they kick you when
you're down
Did you know that?
Have you been delt
the bruises
and the welts
and the emotional scars?
They last forever
you know
Even if you can't see them
There they are
and forever
will you be
pained
