(Dream)

He’s sick

I’m trying to save his life but the meds are expensive

And I’m too broke to afford it

A cousin requests ownership of him to cover his vet bill

I let him go…

He looks at me with disappointment as I hand him over

His eyes turn cold

A look I’ve never seen before in him

The heat rises

I’m angry

I lost him

He was taken from me

My father mocks my tears

He calls me “estupida”

I erupt

Chairs go flying

And suddenly I’m in his face

I want the fight

I want to be destroyed

I taunt him

He warms his hand up on my face

The anger keeps me going

I’m breaking everything in sight

Screaming at, I don’t know who

I’m pulled out

The anger is still present

I’m shaking…

Then the tears come
