his gift

i felt pain.
i felt it in his words
he injured me with his actions
he hurt me with his thoughts
he gave me wounds.
he inflicted my being with burns
he gave me a gift id rather not get
he gave me pain.
yes, pain...
the kind that leaves you in agony
the kind which takes years to heal
pain which marks your being with a scar.
