The Fight
February 11, 2016
My mind is telling me to be calm,
my fist is screaming to swing,
my eyes are looking for a fight,
my mouth zipped itself shut,
my ears are zoning on my sister’s cry to play,
my nose begging for mercy from the cigarette smoke,
my legs locking at every attempt to kick
“Good thing I do Frankensteins in PE class I’m gonna need em’” my brain is telling me.
My phone is calling me to get away from her and him.
Go and chase after him you have nothing to lose! Your daughter's love for you? You lost that over a year ago.
My feelings aren’t a game!
Wow, you're lame.
Go away take a clue
Fight me I dare you...
