With pieces of grass on my knees
My eyes, I squeeze
shut,
Waiting for the next fist,
To fly at me.I can barely see.
My vision is blurry
My shins are bruised.
My nose is bloody.My memory, muddy.
Their fists are bruised blue, and ugly.
I just wanted to feel numb freely.
So please, leave me.
I don't need you to fight for me.
