I Remember Him


I remember his smell

I remember his sweat

I remember his breath

It smelled like garlic—

Fried—fried garlic


And I remember his ugly face

Like a strange, dreadful spot

He was dark.

He was tall

He made darkness ugly


And in the midst of terror

There were no tears on his face—

only on my face

And in his red eyes,

I saw fright—He was enraged

Now, I am left like a dry bone

I’m drowning

In a silent sea of pain

I’m wondering...

Will I ever recover?
