Dear Nathan
I'm doing better now
I've distanced myself from you
Although it wasn't hard with the way you left me
Wasn't hard
Knowing you were the man I loved
Knowing you were the boy who hurt me
You're the reason I don't love me
You're the reason
I say I'm sorry
To every boy and girl I'll ever love
The reason why I jump when someone touches me
The reason why Christian left me
Not that any of your friends knew
What you could do
When you grabbed my arm and left that bruise
That bruise I had to hide from my parents
Who will never know you
Only that
I
Loved
You
Just that I am broken
That you took and you stole
That I flinch when people yell
Because it reminds me of the smell
Of beer on your breath
And that you stole my heart from my chest
That the boy I love
Only knows that you hurt me
Because abuse isn't shown
It's witnessed
Dear Nathan, you hurt me
You're still among the faces.
