Never Again
by
Jonathan Isenor
He came in drunk again
Beat you up
You ran to your room
Locked the door
That didn’t stop him
He broke the door down
And beat you more
He didn’t stop until he saw blood
He left the room
Deciding that he did enough damage
As you sit up
Blood drips down your face
Tears fall down your cheeks
But something else happens
You decided no more
You hear footsteps down the hall
You get to your feet
He comes in again
Reeking of beer
He goes to hit you again
This time things are different
You grab his hand
Look him in the yes
And then punch him
You leave the house
As your backing out of the driveway
You look back and decided
Never again.
