I'll keep you safe
he said
before he came swinging
fists hit me like heavy lead
my ears start ringing
as he sees the blood
he falls down crying
realizing what he has done
I'm sorry baby
I was just so mad
if you didnt talk back maybe
it wouldnt be so bad
few weeks later
he finds me studying
I want dinner
he says as a book comes crashing
my face is bloody
my eye went dark
I'm sorry baby
you know how I get when I don't eat
you shouldn't study
without making my meat
