Lesbian Poetry

Fury

I lay awake in bed
Unable to do anything but fight the fury
My walls are closing in
I don't know how much more I can take
How much longer I can hold my world up
My blood has been shed
But at no other's expense
The stains on MY hands
Will never fade
Bright red are they still today
After years of washing and redemption
These stains still remain
Scars I have made
Each tells it's own story
Stories of pain and suffering
These stains will never go away
