~untitled~A Poem by Closed AccountEhhh.... :/I
remember that day, back in September. Really saw me. You
wouldn’t take your eyes off me. You
finally got up the courage and asked me out. I was
so happy. You
were too. Then,
only weeks later, we had our first fight. I
slammed the door on your face and locked you out. You
told me you wouldn’t let me go. That
you loved me too much to stay mad. We
made up, and never thought about it again. The months
passed, and we both grew up. New
year’s passed, and we were still together. But
that was when something changed. When
we talked, you weren’t as sweet as you used to be. You
always seemed angry about something. At
first, I thought it was nothing.
And
then it got worse. If I
went to leave, you would always grab my arm tighter than you should. You
were aggressive. But,
I still thought nothing about it. I
thought you loved me and I loved you. After
that, it only got worse. If I’d
say something you didn’t like, you’d take it out on me. You’d
do anything to see me hurt. I’d
wake up the next day with more bruises than I could count. I
knew it had to stop, but what could I do? If I
tried to leave, you’d only beat me harder. But,
late one night, when you were asleep, I
snuck out the window, and ran away. I
never looked back. Not
even once. © 2010 Closed AccountAuthor's Note
