The Fight

I only asked you to help me.
I only asked you to be my friend.
Why couldn't you have said it nicer?
Why couldn't you have tried not to hurt me?

I just asked a simple question
And the answer i got back
Caused me to get angry
Because I thought you said it in a mean way.

 

I just wanted to be your friend

And get some help with music.

But I can't even get that

Because you hate me.

 

When the conversation was done,

My tears fell into my lap.

I was cold and shaking

Almost seething with anger.

 

The last time I had a fight

With someone other than my sister

Was too long ago to remember.

You weren't even a friend.

 

I am sad that it had to end this way,

Sad that we couldn't have been friends.

Life isn't fair and as you say,

"Real life sucks"

 

I'm the last person you should say that too,

Because I already know.

I already know the pain from loss

And the pain from love.

 

I've experienced things

No 14 year old should.

Not this early,

Not ever.

 

You hurt me,

But I won't admit it to you.

You wouldn't say anything,

Just say "that's nice" and move on.

 

My tears of hurt fell on my lap,

And that was only today.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring

Especially when I see you again.

 

This conversation wasn't meant to be a fight.

I didn't text you just to say those things.

I wanted to ask you a question.

And all it did was start the fight.

Author notes

This is a poem for Sean. I want to show him this, but he wouldn't care. This fight happened today - may 2nd, 2008 and it really hit me hard that i had only fought with my sister like this before. Now i know just how much I hate fighting.

How did you like it? Anything to fix?

    I guess your fighting did all the talking for you. and a brave statement which is alost like calming the situation down. It sounds like a gripe truly won. Either way, you won. Nice one!
