Author's note: This is to my goodfriend Nada. I know there is no happy ending, but I know there's one for you. You have Antonio, and he loves you. He will do everything for , I'm so sorry your father is so cruel. I wish I could do something, but the school doesn't seem to care. You have no idea what I would do, if I was to face your father…
You push me
You use me
You falter me
You dirty me
You break me
You equal destruction
You equal pain
You equal hatred
You equal screams
You equal slaps
Why do I run away?
And then come back again
Why do I shove you away?
And then run into your arms
How can I enjoy your comfort?
If the reassurance is a flying hand
Or a thrusting foot
Why do you growl?
When I say I love you
Why do you hiss?
When my mother stands up for me
Is there a reason you're so cruel?
If I show you this poem
You will only crumble it up
And laugh
As you toss it in the trash...
