J.J. Campbell
it's walking through
a grocery store and
watching a father
beat a lesson into
his son
a part of you wants
to step in but another
part of you understands
it's none of your business
bruises heal you
surmise as you walk
by and say a silent
prayer
even the lord knows
the mental scars only
grow deeper with time
you hold back the urge
to tell the boy while the
father is looking away
accept the beating
it will make you
stronger and one
day you'll be
strong enough
to seek your
revenge
