Fists

here i am standing
my fist bleeding
i cant hear anything
just my breathing and my hart
what just happened
trying to recap
he insulted me
he pushed my girl
now he's on the ground
his face full of blood
i can hear
people cheering
they stand next to me
but it sounds like they are
far away
cheering to who?
I look for my girl
lets go
we walk
on the way
my hearing comes back
I can hear sirens
cut through the gardens
dark
we sit down behind hedges
more sirens
we wake up with the first
sun rays cutting through the dark
my hands full of dried blood
he was known for this
now
he wont do that again
broken nose and one tooth
--
nobody saw anything
