Poem / My life

 He act like he can’t stand me no more.

He come home with a girl from round Gray.

 I think she thought she love him. 

He beat me today cause he say I winked at a boy in church.

Didn’t mean nothing to him. He pull my dresstail and ast can he have some blackberry jam out the safe.

But I don’t know how to fight. All I know how to do is stay alive.

I mean he just brought her here, dropped her, and kept right on running after Shug Avery.

It like he looking at the earth. It need somethin? 

I don’t say nothing.

But I’m alive.

Plus, he still in love.
