Nastiness

 

Silence is sometimes broken
by a dark bell tolled...
causing sorrow to unfold

Unkind words need to go unheard
 Sometimes even those whispered
 may be louder than a shout
and quicker than a dagger...
they can cut your heart out
without even a drop of blood
with no visible wound to bind
Nothing hurts as much
as words undeserved and unkind
To wound a heart that is true
takes a troubled and tortured mind..
When the next tolling
 of the dark bell is near
there may be no one to hear...
