Rattling through my head all day,
Was my lack of a chance to open my mouth and say,
How could you?
I’m gone for three months and this is what you do?
For Christ sakes,
Look into his eyes and you’ll know there was a better way,
For you to have expressed your point yesterday.
Forget me trying to explain wrong from right.
I’m tired after all, day and night, I’ve spent,
Hoping you would learn what you did, and still do,
Is something you never meant or truly mean to do.
Whether you win or lose,
In my mind, there was never any war.
Granted, we are all human,
But I don’t believe that gives anyone the right,
To throw someone through,
Any solid object that may catch their eye,
Because of a little disagreement, or hell,
Let’s just call it a fight.
I’ve been silenced for eight years by one statement,
“Know your place in this family young lady.”
Come and gone, that statements flew,
In and out of your mouth, but I have news for you.
I did what I was supposed to do.
I looked up to you.
I listened and obeyed, and now,
My words are able to easily slice through you,
Just like your fists always seem to be able to do.
