Your

words are meant to hurt me

and probably put me in my place.

But, I realise that your words have no meaning towards me anymore

you say them because you can but there are not even worth spitting out.

You are angry and you try to take it out on me but, I am no longer that little girl

that would be affected by it.

I am a grown now and the tears and hurt feelings are not found in this moment and I just laugh now as you yell out words that are useless and pointless and don’t even describe who I am now or ever was.

I will go to sleep tonight and forget about what you said and tomorrow I will not care or worry for life will go on and I know you won’t think about what you said and you surely won’t care to say sorry.

So yet again why should I care or be bothered with this thing you will end up doing again and again and maybe one day I won’t be around to hear it again and then maybe you will regret the words you said to me.
