They are not the only ones told. I am not the only one says them. Five bogus reasons given by you and me. Five that are said and don't need to be. Five pointless reasons that have no true meaning. By our ears, we hear them, but never need and never should.


They’re meaningless. They harm us and bring bad messages to the ones they’re being said to. Some are good but most are bad. This is what they do.


Let one bring a different meaning to others, they caused fights and brought upon a broken heart. Cry, cry, cry until I fall asleep. They hurt.


When I’m too upset and can't stop, when my chest and heart hurts, I think of these reasons. When there is nothing left to lift my spirit. Five which cause harm. Five said that can't be taken back. Five reasons that shouldn’t exist but do.
