"Alright Ana, your turn."My poetry teacher told me. I nodded and stood up walking to the front of the class.

November 13, Poetry Class

I once was asked concerning love versus hate

Why does it seem that hate is so great?

While hate is a very strong emotion too

Nothing can equal love that is true

The weight of hate is very heavy to bear

While it seems like love is lighter than air

Accounts of hate make a big news headline

While actions of love you must look hard to find

But when you consider that love is patient, kind,

Envieth not, not pompous, not puffed up, not rude,

Seeketh not her own, slow to anger, thinks no evil,

Rejoices not in wrong doing, but rejoices in the truth,

Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,

Endures all things, and never fails*

You soon learn that the density of love is so much,

Although the scales be heaped with a great volume of hate

It's catapulted by a mere measure of love's touch,

Love strengthens the bearer so one feels not its weight

-Ana

I smiled and sat down. Of course that poem was about Rayan. Him and I had grown closer over those few months. The first month he asked me out, I declined. The second time I declined once again. Then finally the third time he gave me this big extravagant "date" and finally I said yes. Do I think this is one big mistake? By the ways things are looking now...no not really. We're okay actually. "Hey, you coming over to my house this weekend babe?"He asked me as we left the classroom."Hmph, I guess I can make it." I shrugged."Okay,seeya later."He kissed me and ran off home.

I silently walked home but was pushed into a wall."Bitch, I told you to stay away from him!" I know that voice, it's Victoria. "Let go of me." I shoved her off. Trust me my words are stronger than I actually am. She pushed me to the ground, making me groan in pain."Victoria leave me alone! "I tried kicking her off of me. She continuously punched me in the face and in the body, then I felt at least five more hands. I can't believe I'm getting jumped.

Slit and

Slither knife

Penetrate in phallic push

To perforate the pulse of tissues in the flesh

Slice a vein to drain the unsuspecting victim

E'er they bleed and plea

Their scream

Of death
