Arguments Poem by Raven Syke

All we do is argue
Every night and everyday
Doesn't matter what i do
Doesn't matter what i say

Like a ticking time bomb
We both explode
Where did that come from?
None of us know

In a fit of anger
In a fit of rage
Nothing really matters
For at this stage

Our fists do the talking
The weak do the walking
Our words are lost on the air
What's left is our inner fear

Switch off our humanity
Give in to all that insanity
It doesn't matter who's right
All that matters is who's left to fight

Cuts, bruises, a slash or two
That isn't enough
A kick, a hit, a punch that you threw
That isn't enough

See that grimace screw up your face
A thick red liquid, a familiar taste
See where your smile used to be
Now a broken used to be

Hear the screams
Fear for your life
Our anger seethes
Throughout he night
