Do you have any idea that it hurts when you say that?

When you get in my face and you say the words so loud that your face becomes too red?

Then after we've had this repeated scream fest i lay down at night and think. No he didnt mean it.

He loves me too much to ever think that.

But i wake up knowing that when i get home from school, the argument will star to boil and spill over.

The tears will slide down my face and you'll say the same words.

And ill go back to sleep knowing that when i wake up the nightmare will continue
