I gave you
My heart
Now I’m scared
You’ll take it
Run away
And break it
With emotions
Protruding like spikes
On the ball of a flail

Her presence
Consumes the room

Even her voice sounds
Rough, pitted by
Adrenaline surging
Through her veins

Her mood
Is more than stern
As if bitterness
Rests around
Her heart
And all calm
Is hidden somewhere
Within her shadow

So many beautiful words

Sometimes.
They aren’t like this,
They don’t always yell...
They don’t always make me feel worthless.
Daddy always tells me he loves me after he screams, or hits.
They are good people… sometimes.

Infamous one
Not trying to argue
Or fight with stubborn
Set in their ways
Causing frustration in the way
Avoid them and pray
No time for rude and crude
Not alike working to better my situation
Not looking for a hand out
Willing to lend a helping hand
Writing helps with sanity
Venting hoping to relate
