His Hands Poem by Samantha Torrez

I'll never forget his hands.
Through life I've regretted nothing.
Until now
I knew when I met you you were trouble
I couldn't stay away
You kissed me so sweetly so tenderly
What happened to that man I knew.
You never layed a hand on me violently,
Until now
Your hands flew at me because I was afraid.
You said you loved me, I never said so myself.
You were angered & destroyed,
I'm sorry I couldn't love you right.
As you saw my blood run from my cheek you realized.
Your hand caused this dent in my perfection
For once you felt pitty
Once
The next time you didn't stop,
Why I came back? I thought
You could lOve me you just need some help
As an empath you knew I couldn't resist
I cried for you,
I bled for you,
I did anything you wanted,
To see you with her.
After hitting me, cutting me, branding me, almost rapeing me
I was never enough, not enough
To outshine her.
His hands still haunt me, but I've found someone better
He'll never lay a heavy hand on me.
Never force me to such hate
His hands,
Hold love.
& though I may only be 15,
I've found out how loves to be.
In his hands.
