The fight

July 10, 2015
It all started with one subject Religion It was always an issue between us I took it to far One comment ruined it all I hurt him I never wanted to Wish I could take it back The emotions are to painful to bear I punched lockers to relieve some pain I hurt myself But the physcial pain took away From the emotional pain I wrote a short story I cried I fight off the pain Only to make it worse I apologize but It is like talking to a brick wall I try to sleep Only to sit bolt upright the second I have a nightmare He is standing over me Claiming he hates me I know its not true He doesn't hate me However I hate myself I want to escape the pain However every corner I turn It shows up and kills me even more I wanna break down But I can't I have to stay strong A true warrior hides their emotion And puts others before themself But I question Am I a warrior? If I hurt those I love Am I truly a good person? I sit and stare into space And wonder this I have hurt one of the people I never had intention of hurting I am sorry David I hope you can forgive me
