My life is the sort of life where you don't always know if you'll live or die.
I'm not alone in this; in fact, I am one of many.
My life, like everyone's, is the sort of life where I am afraid sometimes.
I think fear is one of my first memories.
Fear of violence, yelling, loud noises.
Fear of not being good enough.
I've been hurt, and run over, and beaten.
The pattern I seem to notice is that I'm always under someone's thumb.
They may be bigger than me, or older, but sometimes just the same size and age as me.
And I used to wonder why it happened to me, but I now know that I get what I deserve.
Because I am a bad person.
I've done things I can never take back.
Things I can never scrub clean from me.
Because those things are me.
They are what lies at my core, in the back of my mind.
The other pattern I noticed is I'm always being hurt by those who love me, or hurt because of love.
My mother beat my brother and I because she loved us.
My step-father touched me because he loved me.
My abuelos couldn't accept me for who I chose to be because they loved me.
And because someone loved somebody else, I had to pay for it by recieving actions in consequence to what I'd done.
And because somebody loves me, but never more than somebody else, I think I realize how love can hurt.
Love hurts when I can't give my little brother anything for his birthday.
Love hurts when I can't talk to my mom until I'm 22.
Love hurts when I can't have a family.
But most of all, love hurts when I want to kill myself but remember everyone who loves me in their various forms.
Dare I say, I'm tired of love
Yet dare I say, I deserve it
