Black eyes and
January 27, 2008
Black eyes and
Handprints on forearms
Show off what happens
(Behind closed doors)
And when he should have
Helped
Wanted to
Help
(But couldn’t)
She and
He were both
Utterly helpless to stop
(Her father’s wrath)
Until her Knight came (thundering in)
And scooped her up and
Hugged her
Even though
She didn’t believe him
When he said
Everything would be okay (in the end)
