Secrets We All Know
Blue and purple are the bruised
And bodies lay limply on the floor
Pushed and shoved are the abused
Thank God for the rages left unused
Fading yellow, always sore
Blue and purple are the bruised
Tears are shed by the confused
Rivets of fear dribble through their core
Pushed and shoved are the abused
Wicked smiles of the amused
Footfalls never reaching the door
Blue and purple are the bruised
Two fates unwontedly fused
Women and children forever poor
Pushed and shoved are the abused
There’s no evidence remaining to prove
They’re dead with nothing left here anymore
Blue and purple are the bruised
Pushed and shoved are the abused
