Assault,
A scary thing
A thing you cant get over
Like a broken heart or betrayal
It will never fail
It shows up at the last minute when you finally think your about to win it
When you finally think someone can fix it
They break your heart little bit by little bit and expect you not to have a fit
They threaten to kill you
So keeping your mouth shut is exactly what you so
Your scared to tell your parents because you know they wont believe you
So suffering in science is all you can do
About the Creator
ALEXIS Harris
My name is Alexis. I’m 16 and striving to be a poet. After being locked up for 7 months, I learned to face my emotions instead of hiding them. Poetry became my voice, my healing, and my way to grow. Writing turned my pain into purpose.
