When You Say Sorry
Tinted red
Everything is screaming
One more thrust
I think I'm falling
The floor is numb
Or is that me?
I've lost control of my own destiny
You now control what will be
The powerlessness is overwhelming
And I think I love it
My temples ache
My mind is swelling
You caused it
The colors before my eyes
Are swirling
Yet I feel blinded
The fall to the floor hurt
More than I admitted
My skin bruises when you touch me
Harshly
But at least you're touching me
Love me in a gentler way!
It's what everything in me is dying to say
Yet it's hard to get the words out of my throat
When your hands are choking me
Thrown against the wall
The floor is safety from you
If I don't move
Don't breathe
Maybe you'll leave me long enough for the black and blue
To fade away
Tomorrow is another day
You'll change as you grow older
You will become more secure
Maybe you just need an outlet for your anxieties
An outlet that is not me
My heart will love you forever
Yet my body can only take so much
Later you'll heal me
Touching me softly
And I'll stay
When you say sorry
