Stay and Fight
Since I can’t speak
I’ll stay silent
Since I can’t sing
I’ll hyme
Since I can’t run and hide
I’ll stay and fight
Since I stayed silent
My lips they bleed
From the words trying to escape
And when my lips are tired of the taste of blood
They let a few of these words
Slip out for you to hear
My face then feels the sting of your hand
Across my cheek
My fist then tightens from holding back the anger
And my eyes grow heavy
As I feel the flood rising
The tears pour from my eyes
Down my face and hit the ground
A smile then creeps upon my face
Because I realize my life's not perfect
And never can be
I realize that I hate you for the first time
Because of the sting still embracing my face
And the words you said to me are piercing my ears
But I still stand and fight
My past has tasted bitter
Along with the present
But not nearly will my F
