Black and Blue

Thu, 12/15/2016 - 12:18 -- kwisdom

You pounded in me until I bled black and blue.

I know your face, but not your name, though I will forever remember you.

I will forever remember your bony white fingers and how they traced against my skin.

How your tongue danced across my skin and took away my innocence.

You pounded in me and you took away my faith.

You pounded in me and you took my first love.

You pounded in me and I now internally bleed in black and blue.

Black and blue, blue and black, you took away something I can never gain back.

You pounded in me and took my virginity, something I wasn't ready to give.

Black and blue.

You pounded in me and created a soul tie that will take months to break.

Black and blue.

You pounded in me and cause emotional damage that I can no longer take.

Black and blue.

I live my life in different men trying to rid your touch from my skin.

Black and blue.

I wake up screaming at nights, pleading with you to let me keep this final piece of me.

Black and blue.

"Used" inscribed on my inner thighs and across my heart, scribbled down my neck where your tongue paraded.

"Used" inscribed across my skin like the inside of an old math textbook.

Black and blue.

I drank too much, I can't push you off me.

Black and blue.

Why doesn't anyone hear me screaming? There's not that many people at this party.

Black and blue.

You broke me.

Black and blue.

I am forever damaged.

Black and blue.

My body is no longer mine.

Black and blue.

I lost everything I loved, including me.

Black and blue.

You broke my first love's heart too.

Black and blue.

We were ruined because of you.

Black and blue.

At night I feel my heart crying out his name.

Black and blue. 

My mind is spinning out of control, I'm going insane.

Black and blue.

I remember your face, but I do not know your name.

Black and blue.

Nothing about me will ever be the same.

Black and blue, black and blue, black and blue. 

I will forever bleed my bruises of black and blue because of you.
