From thousands of unfatal cuts and tears.89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdihQmvLTBf
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZj4nFRkt5
A thousand little stings from tongue or eye,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalGGMTsn0S
A thousand unkind words from me and you,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkH3NMSyjx
A thousand "I told you so’s" piled on high,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeEBgvflWs
A thousand battles lost, refought anew.89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJkxtVK6JG
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWkDRpiYTh
Each wound a scab that grows harder with time,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjTtTkvJBV
Covering festering hurts that won't heal,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIkVALNoXj
An unwise word morphs to betrayal sublime,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKeDLNMvwr
Suppurating reminders all too real.89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKCd6sc1EI
89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ9fAOG69H
Simple kindness is lost from lack of use,89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9gnE0bOC1
And what remains just a facade in truth.89Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHJ8dVAISX
