I wake up to another,
One after the other,
Did I lose consciousness,
Or all my sense of justice?
The punches mold my face,
Forehead to a frown,
Purse into a grin,
Teeth back in place,
But I can't see the person,
Who holds such resentment,
As the blows worsen,
All I seek are amendments!
There's disappointment too,
And rage, and irritation,
What did I do to you?
Foreign eyes could never,
Would never get the situation,
The thick fog becomes wispy,
Delicate strands of temper remain,
So I try to find the missing piece,
Who shall I blame for this pain?
A mirror is all I find,
The moment I squint my eyes,
With a black eye and bloody mouth,
Is the person seeking out?
Like soulmates we match,
Releasing hitched breaths,
They echo my own thoughts,
As our stares lock,
I lose the need to speak aloud,
For she now holds my hand,
Her timeless scars match mine,
And brown orbs begin to shine,
I whisper that I understand,
As a shadow of humiliation,
Settles over me unplanned,
'I'm sorry' I mutter,
As I stretch my hand to cup her face,
And lean into the comfort offered,
'Its okay' I reply,
As I nestle into my embrace.
