Why Did You Hurt Me

 I feel your fingers dig in

I feel your grip tighten

as we walk down the hall

I hear you tell me to just walk

I feel your grip tighter

tighter

righter

 

How do you not see

Why are you so blind

Do you not see what he

is doing

Do you not care

Report him please

For I am afraid

 

Why you ask me

Why do you talk about others

Am I not good enough for you

You keep asking me WHY

 

Your hand still around my neck

You pushing me from behind

You are hurting me

please stop

 

Why don’t you see

Why are you so blind

Don’t you see what he

is doing

DO YOU NOT CARE

HELP ME PLEASE

 

You laugh it off

It’s my fault I know

It’s always the girls fault

It doesn’t stop there

 

You grab my wrists

Let’s go you say

Let’s go

You are pulling me

You are hurting me

 

WHY DON’T YOU SEE

WHY ARE YOU SO BLIND

DON’T  YOU SEE THE BRUISES

DO YOU NOT CARE

 

You begin to pull harder

You begin to drag me.

Why didn’t I just move

Why didn’t I move faster

 

You drag me further and further

You drag me out the door

You drag me where people

could see

You are hurting me

Do you not care

Stop it

STOP IT

 

WHY DON’T YOU SEE

WHY ARE YOU BLIND

DO YOU NOT CARE

CAN’T YOU HELP ME

 

You let go of my arms

as I beg you to let go

I rub them

I look at them

I have those bruises

Why did you do that

Why did you drag me

Do you not care

Why did you hurt me

Why

Why
