SMACK!
PLOP!
SMACK!
Over and over
My head hurts
It throbs
From being
Smashed into the wood
To many times
Its furnishing
Of blood
Is up my nose
That sweet but very salty
Taste is stuck
In my mouth
I try so hard
To drag myself
Up and fight
But each time
I stand
I fall
For that pattern
Of SMACK PLOP SMACK!!!
Goes over
Again and again
Now I don't even try
Nope
I sure don't
I don't have
The strength or power
To stand up
I'm making myself fall
My legs shake and creek
Each time
I stand
I can't cry
Cause there's
No more tears
To come
My face is streaked with tears
My shirt was to
Before it got covered soaked
In blood
My blood
It's such a pure color
Solid red
I'm a doll
Really I am
I can't do anything
As she hovers
Over me with
Her fist
Clenched
They're solid red
GOOD LORD
My blood
My pure blood
Covers her fist
Why can't she stop
Her fist and feet
Stomp out my life
A little at a time
One
Two
Three
BAM!!
Four
Five
Six
POW!!
Seven
Eight
Nine
SLAP!!
That goes over
In my head
My lungs scream
AIR AIR!!
But I don't want
Any
my blood will
Drown me
Finally my lungs win
As I hear them
Quiver with victory
I shake
my life
Shouldn't be like
This with a big
Scary monster
Hovering over me
Than it stops
Silence at last
I can't hear anything
YES she's done
I roll over
I feel no pain
So strange
She still stands
Beating my chest
MAN I must be dead
For I can't feel
But no I'm in shock
I must be
My bloods still on her
She's still pounding
There's fire in her eyes
It's fierce like a pouncing lion
She slowly stops
I see her slow down
With each punch
Her energy weakens
Now she's just spitting
On me
It's disgusting
But refreshing
Her spit
Her slobber
Brings coolness
Back to my body
And takes me out of shock
Out to death
But brings me to reality
Now I do wish I'm dead
I'm sore everywhere
I have got a killer headache
and the smell of bleach is everywhere
why?
There it is
The bleach
It's mixed in my blood
I can't believe it's coming up
My blood it's not staining the floor
What's wrong with her
What's wrong with GOD
Is he punishing me
For my doings
What is going on
Next thing I know
I'm burning my clothes
This has to be the second time
I've done this
Bring
Bring
SMACK!!
It was all a dream
Nightmares from the past more like it
