hit me
hit me a little harder
I'll build a family
as you drag me across the floor
paint my skin
with shades of
lavender and roses
you treasure my bruises as trophies
hit me
hit me when you like
please never lay a finger on him
please never reveal yourself to her
hit me
I'll drown myself inside a box of flames
to keep my children safe
**** me
**** me if you can
hate me
hate me while you can
the day has come
I can finally breathe
ashes running into the sea
I've healed
your strong grip against my throat
I left you trapped inside a burning box
blessed to never see you again
For my mother,
I love you,
I am sorry.
