Unforgiving future

You broke my future heart
when your anger touched my face
You commited an act
which I can never erase

But you can.
Cut off your hand.

Then I'll take you back.

Author notes

I just had a lecture about domestic abuse, this is a message to myself in the future if I ever find myself in such a situation. I will not forgive a man who would hit me, I will not. Future self you had better remember this.

option 4e - 'big girls don't cry' - so why was she crying? and what do you do instead of crying was what this made me think about, this poem expresses those things, I would cry if he hit me but would kick him out even if it made me cry more, there can be tears and strength to me.
