Hey, this is Strawberry, how y'all feeling out there today?
I hope everybody is doing well. If you're not doing well, let's find a way to get well, look well, and be well.
Today's topic is called, it hurts.
It hurts, but I'm used to it. I'm used to being hurt every single day of my life.
It hurts to learn I am not as special as I thought I was.
It hurts when I breathe, laugh, or spend someone else's cash.
It's like I am nothing, but someone's trash.
It hurts not knowing who can help me without destroying me, but love me.
It hurts that you are not on my side, and all my decisions are the ones you want me to hide.
It hurts every time I swallow my pride to protect you.
It hurts being in a big world facing life on my own.
It hurts hearing what they did to you, me, and our loved ones.
It hurts being married to a stranger, but it's even worse when talking to my enemy.
It hurts that you only recognize the color of my skin, my butt, or my breast size.
It hurts learning you don't understand my pain, and my life is nothing but a game.
It hurts trying to fit and struggle to not be pushed away.
It hurts so bad my eyes are bleeding.
It hurts waking up every day just to hate tomorrow.
Or yesterday, it hurts.
Yes, it hurts. It is so painful.
It hurts my eyes are bleeding, and that poem was called It hurts.
And a lot of things in our life do hurt, and people don't understand that it hurts.
And they look at us like it's normal.
But hurting somebody, somebody feeling pain, hurting.
And any kind of way that brings tears to their eyes or pain to their heart, it hurts.
So, be that person that's not hurting.
Help that person heal the pain that's hurting them.
I mean, be real instead of faith.
Love and don't hate.
Our y'all could do those live and learn because life is what we make it.
Life is, we know what it is.
It is so, so, so, so, so, so real.
Please stop living it, Faith.
And stop hurting those that you love.
And think you want to hate.
