My Black Eyes-

This morning I went to school
with a flitchy, black eye
people asking what happened
I cover it up with some lie

"..oh just fell..
..ran into the door..
..my brother was messing around..
..slip and fell on the floor.."

The principle called me down
and he asked if at home anything was wrong
I told him "I'm fine..
..everyone is getting along.."

I left his office
and headed on home
walked through the door
and I felt so alone

Mom's boyfriend came in
and mom told him to hold me down
I screamed and yelled "no"
as she was pushing and hitting me around

They made me go to my room
and I stayed there in my corner, wishing time would fly
I awake the next morning hurting..
and everyones asking about my other black eye..
