Five fingered star

Five fingered star

A Poem by Olive Belikov

You call me a b***h,
Say "get out out of my face",
And push me down.
You say you love me
But slap me around.
I say I'm sorry, it's not my fault;
I cry for love and a holding hand.
The only hug I get
Is the weight of your arm I hold
While your drunk and can't stand.
You call me a w***e,
Say im a mess up;
Then call me a b***h
For not loving you more.
But I play along with your game
'cause I can't stand the idea of you
Hitting my brother.
Crying softly to myself
Is all I can do,
As I cover the five fingered star
Thar brands me forever.

Very emotional and effective. The association with a "star" and use of the word softly in something so dark it gives it a slightly different mood. The repetition call me a b***h also works well.
