Be Brave
You gotta look brave
He hits you
Keep looking strong
He yells at you
Don’t cry
He says you’re worthless
Breathe
He pushes you down
Get back up
He kicks you
Don’t let him see you're hurting
He will like that
He pulls your hair
Keep calm
He keeps beating on you
Keep it together it will be over soon
You lie on the floor
Blood dripping from your nose
Bruises forming everywhere possible
You hate yourself even more
But don’t let anyone know
Hide it
Don’t show it
Breathe in
Be brave
Remember he loves you
