607. She Hurts Me Because She Cares Poem by Jaden Knight

She hurts me because she cares
at least I think that is the reason
every mark has their own story
but I believe that she still loves me

She's punched me hard enough
to knock me to the floor
my nose has almost been broken
and my eyes have been blacked
am sure she didn't mean it

She criticises my every action
even in front of her friends
am sure that she means well
as she wants me to improve

My body and arms are covered in bruises
that I hope that no one will see
I don't want anyone to misunderstand
I must have done something to deserve them

Surely she doesn't mean to harm me
as I believe that she loves dearly
there can only be one reason for her actions
she hurts me because she cares
