Today we argued
Today you made me cry
Today you said you loved me
If I leave then you would die.
Today you said you’re sorry
Today my bruises show
Today I made a promise
That tomorrow I would go
Today my heart was broken
Today I packed my case
Today you cried and shouted
And smacked me in the face.
Yesterday was easy
Yesterday went fast
Yesterday I left you
I feel free at last.
Author notes
I know the ending is a little weak. Mum and I were discussing domestic violence and I felt inspired....I dunno I just wrote.
Any comments/constructive criticism is appreciated.
