Ponderings from a Procrastinating Prognosticator

HURT

Posted by samatwitch on March 18, 2013

Hurt permeates our lives

Physically through injuries or chronic conditions,

Verbally with words of shame, bigotry or taunting,

And emotionally through death or loss.

I can’t understand why people delight in hurting others.

I know they must be in pain themselves

But does it really make them feel better to belittle another,

To rake their souls as easily as they would rake their skin?

  1. I’m so happy to have you back and writing, Sams. This touches on a lot of what I’ve been feeling of late as well. Thank you.

    Thanks, Eric. It was short but felt good to get it down.
