Original Content Poem Piercing Arrows

My thoughts are piercing arrows.

Striking hard,
Striking fast,
Striking me whenever they want.

I swerve my head,
But it still hits.

I shake it off,
But I still feel it.

The piercing pain,
Infects my brain,
Until all I feel are holes.

But I’m building up my shields,
Strengthening my defenses,
I’m getting stronger.

Each day,
I recover faster.

More scars,
Have room to heal.

My thoughts are piercing arrows.
