Child of His

Keep going Keep pushing Pushing out the hate Pushing out the words Words that spit like venom Words that roll of the tongue with ease Ease of not thinking Ease of hurt Hurt is the easiest to inflict Hurt normally goes unnoticed Unnoticed when he doesn’t love Unnoticed he shows me my worth Worth nothing to him Worth hurting his child Child of God I am Child of his I am not AM NOT!

Needs work Bubbles, as I gather this was only a first draft, but it is a powerful ensemble and hit me hard for the protagonist. At some point this child of God will flourish, without need of a man right now. Best. Thomas
