Intervention

All of your battles were won
With the aid of your bullets and gun.
You felt so much bigger
When you pulled the trigger;
You finally felt like someone.

You took me and locked me away.
Fresh water and food everyday.
I suffered a lot,
But deserved what I got;
I had so many debts to repay.

You gagged me and bound me in chains,
Poured buckets of bleach on my stains.
I struggled at first,
But it only got worse,
So I suffered the aches and the pains.

You strove to correct every flaw.
My defects were all that you saw.
Under attack
I was flat on my back,
I ignored all the blood on the floor.

But everything failed in the end.
You pushed me, but I wouldn’t bend.
You tried to repair
All the cracks that were there,
But I was too broken to mend.
