STAINED FIGHTS

She hid behind her toughness

Always rolling punches, day after day

One after another

She was drowning the pain.

Scared of real connection

Or maybe justrejection

She pushed people away, one after another

No one really stayed.

But you see, she was used to being alone

It was what she knew best

She wasn't afraid of darkness or monsters in her head.

Instead she made friends with them,

They all wanted the same

-their hearts not to be stained.

Thoughts on this one? Let me know in the comments, I would really appriciate it.
