Bruises adorn her body Tears run down her cheeks As she begs him, please stop But, he looks at her and shrieks. His breath reeks with liquor His eyes were bloodshot He utters word of hatred As he slaps her across the back. She crouches in the corner Wondering when this is going to stop Or when will she find the courage And really fight back. After his satisfaction He takes a seat next to her Why did you make me do this? Tell me, were you a bad girl? She looks down at her hands As an ashamed child would do Trying not to make eye contact For fear of another round, part two. He tells her that he loves her Never will he hit her again Should she take his word as is? Or tell him it's the end? Decisions, decisions One that she'll have to make Her life depends on it It is for her own sake. She values her life It's the only one she's got So, when he falls asleep she'll pack her bag and flee. To that place where she longed to be, safe and free. Ok, I said it!
