The voice in me

Yeah for a moment I thought I didn’t care , and that it hadn’t affected me in any way, but boy was I wrong.

I kept hearing the words over and over again at random moments. Each time as if a piece of my heart was being chipped off. Until I finally went to sleep in tears. Woke up in tears. And now carrying myself across the day feeling disconnected to everything around me.

To think that the ones I am supposed to reach out to in times like these are the very people who caused me to be in such a space, crazy right.

But anyway, it made me also reflect on how many times I have used words so carelessly. How many souls did I leave in pain because of my reckless mouth.

Words can hurt as much as they can heal.

I pray to remember that all the time I am talking to anyone.
