The Indignant Poetess

Abuse

A man who doesn’t run away from his own demons wouldn’t let me run away from him either,

And that’s exactly what I like.

 

I like a man who isn’t afraid of a little force,

Breathing down my neck as a constant reminder,

Your voice echoing in my head because another man looked at me,

My wrists barely painted on with a tint of rose by your fingertips…

Tears fall down my face as you coat me in your art.

 

A man without strength is nothing but a mere shell to me,

And I’ll be here as long as you keep me alive.
