*Broken Thumbs*

Jayleah Love

She was a girl who craved love.

She was a girl who craved touch.

She was a girl who craved affection. She was a girl who craved attention.

She was a girl who craved it all.

She was a girl who one day seen that all fall with broken thumbs she begged a man to love her the way she loved him 

He told her he couldn't love her hes too much of a "thug" to

him his pride held more weight then the tears in her eyes

with broken thumbs She was a girl who the became NUMB.

    It started promising, but I kind of lost it at the "thug" part personally. No reason to quite though, this is a good start, and I like the "broken thumbs" imagery!

      So it was a personality thing ... he is too much of a "gangsta" or like a "thug" as he liked to say to show love and affection he had too much pride.

        I knew what you meant. I just felt like it was a bit blatant, but those are my thought and my thoughts alone. If you like it, then it doesn't matter!
