Poem Title:
Poem
It's 3 am,and I'm sitting here waiting. Once again you're in the hospital and once again You brush me off,tell me your fine,that you fell the down the stairs. Please ,everybody knows it's the universal lie for 'I'm abused'. You think I don't see how you cover your arms, even in summer? How you flinch every time I reach past you? How you come to my house at midnight limping in pain? How your eyes are sometimes swollen? No matter how much makeup you were it won't cover your split lip or swollen eyes. You shake in fear when he calls,you jump up at his beck and call. It hurts to see you unconscious in hospital,swollen and broken,how you grovel at his feet and to see you come to school with puffy red eyes, a sure sign you were crying. Remember that time when you would laugh at my jokes, stick up to bullies and dance like nobody's watching? Now you frown,never smile,never laugh. Look at what he's done to you, he's ruined you, taken away your essence of life. You are now nothing but an empty broken shell too ruined, too shattered to be fixed. Why do you stay with him? Please help me to understand,just leave,be happy. I try to see what you see in him,but I fail every time. You tell me he loves you but I don't see the love. I see bruises and jeering, laughing and burns, your tears and his glee nothing more nothing less. Please leave, please leave this pain,this anger,this abuse,leave it all behind. Come start a new life,with or without me. Heal and forget. Be happy and free, Just leave,please. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm not exactly sure when I wrote this but I decided to post this :)
