BatteredA Poem by Holly O'BrienI breathe But the intoxicating scents that I am inhaling against my will punish me with sickness Lies and doctrines thrown at my face and spilt in my food I am battling against an unknown enemy And I take the blows as if I deserve them These things make me weak, they make me fear everything Too lazy to die, I am usually surrendering with much dignity Expecting a prize when I never even valued myself
