your thick skull

Linds M. Crate

i told you no, it should’ve ended there; but no, my words had no meaning to you—i wanted to have a sweet sixteen birthday party, but i couldn’t; because you took that simple joy from me when you kissed me—i wanted to participate in life, but you instilled such a strong fear that i was only a fraction of the person i wanted to be; i missed out on so much and my father constantly liked to remind me of that—no one ever asked me what was wrong and meant it, i learned from an early age that everyone wants you to answer fine; they don’t care if you’re anchored in your grief—they only care about theirs—so i don’t know why i should tell you this, but i hate the way you tried to take advantage of me, forced me to kiss you, and thought you could take anything from me that you wanted just because you were a boy and i was a girl—we’re not weaker than men so i hope that, at the very least, breaks through your thick skull.
