Heard
Because I am
Seventeen
Female
Black
Hispanic
Misunderstood
Thump
I hear you
Shoving your fingers down throats,
Bruising unseen crevices,
Destroying livers
Thump
Hearts…
Broken
Veins…
Opened
Innocence…
Taken
World…
Shaken
Thump
You are the cries of the speechless,
The tune of morbidity,
The woes
And the
Foes.
Thump
