My Angel

A life of sorrow, a life of pain,
All so the one I love can gain.
A golden heart she's come to obtain,
All while causing me more and more pain.

She's happy and laughing, that's all I want
I haven't fallen victim to her taunt
Even if her words have come to haunt
My memories like daggers piercing my skull
Remembering the words she said.
"I will never love a faggot like you" engraved into my head.
Her words bring me sorrow, but her laugh brings me glee
Could there be something wrong with me?

I'm starting to get worried,
I haven't seen her around.
"She's probably just sick" so I'm told,
But still my thoughts make me frown.

She came back to school today, and that was quite a sight.
But I can't shake off the feeling that something is not quite right...
Her eyes were black, her lip was cut, her face was covered with tears.
Her pretty little nose was bruised as though she'd been in a fight.
She didn't call me names today, but I felt that was alright.
Rather, she approached with solemn words "I'm sorry for that night"

I was shocked for sure, but I knew what she meant
She had referred to the day she started all the torment.

I was going to ask her about what she said, but she walked away too fast.
But none of that mattered to me
My angel apologised at long last.
