HURTFUL EMOTIONS

by ERIC S.

I see your skin and I see your scars, let me take you
somewhere, where we’re alone. Maybe Mars?

I see your facial expression, maybe it’s teaching me
a lesson? I want to protect you from Satan.

I won’t let this happen again.

The way he treats you isn’t right, stay with me
and I’ll keep you bright. You are my princess, no wait . . .
my queen. And I don’t want you to stay with
someone so rude and mean.

You shouldn’t deal with this abuse,
c’mon there is no use.

I’ll take your tears away, and I’ll
keep you forever if I may.
