Wait One Second
It's okay
That you hurt me
It's okay
That you've left bruises
The doctors know my name by now
The nurses know what I'm allergic to
I love you
And you love me
I love you
That's why you do it
I make you mad
I'm sorry
It's my fault
I deserve the cuts
It's my fault
I disappointed you

You are strong
You are not a slave
Property is not in your description
No one
And I mean NO ONE
Should ever touch you like that
Because you are powerful
You are you
And somewhere
Someone
Is waiting
Just for you
And they will treat you like a queen
Like you deserve to be
