Hurt People Hurting People
It was never malice, but momentum— the gravity of pain passed on to lofty progeny. You carried the weight meant to break you by design. No space to fade, no room to heal, no crack to hide. Just an unjust link in the hefty chain— of hurt people hurting people. ©Samia Oldman
