Angered by my older brother
Pettiness in the air
Harmful words exiting his mouth
Hoping to belittle me, repeatedly
While the truth lays within me
Wanting to tell him his truth, who he really is
My entire body shaken up
My tears fighting to come out
My inner child screaming to be let free
The huge frown on my face wishing-
He would just shut up!
That the voices in my head
WILL SHUT UP
The voices that tell me to
YELL
PUNCH
SLAP
RUN AWAY...
Any violent move you can think of
The kitchen
It’s supposed to be the place we come together
Where we share laughs and make memories
Not where negativity is located
I should be excited as a I get ready for church
Saturday’s have always been my favorite, that day it was the least
It was the day before my sister’s birthday-
Ruined by all our arguing
My anger taken out on my mom
Not wanting to speak to anyone
I wanted to just be left
Alone.
