I thought I was in love with an angry boy
my mother always told me never to allow someone
into your heart who talks about how quickly his fists can move
never love someone who strikes
then listens
I know girls who will take a backhand
if it is followed by a kiss
But the second time you tried to put your hands on me
I moved and let your body slam onto the table
I am worth more than bruises
and your claiming of an endless love
haven't you ever heard
Actions are worth more than words?

To Alex S.
I was not yours to try and abuse. Not then, not ever.
I was 14 and you were 17.
Disgusting.
