Paula Mendoza
MS3, UC Irvine School of Medicine
You’re limping in,
You’re sweet and small
And next to you,
She’s standing tall
She answers for you
She says you fall
But the bruises on you
Don’t make sense
at all
I’m sorry this happened
But here we are
We ask all the questions,
We want to know why.
But nothing about what happened,
Would make any of this right.
I hope you’re safe now,
I hope you’re alright
I’m glad we met..
This was both of our fight
