You Can Say

Folder: 
2009 Poems

You can say that you aren’t broken

But I can see behind those fake smiles

The bruises hidden so well

Underneath the  baggy clothes

You can say it happens to everyone

Though the truth you really know



You can say that you are different

That you are innocent and pure

None of this could happen to you

Because you are the good girl

But even good girls go bad sometimes

All you have to do is cross that line



You can say that I am making it all up

Because you have everything going for you

A great family, a great life

But because of the pain hidden underneath the surface

You’ll fix one day with the knife
