How dare you treat me this way?

You did it repeatedly day after day,

I was suppose to be your one and only.

Yet I’m always the one sitting at home feeling lonely.

~

But while you’re out having fun with someone new,

I sit at home wondering who?

I sit all alone and cry,

Wishing I would just die.

~

You broke my heart,

And tore me apart.

You beat me until I turned black and blue,

And all the marks I covered up so nobody knew.

~

When you hit me everyone stopped and stared,

Although nobody did anything, so they must not have cared.

Nobody tried to help me,

They pretended that there was nothing to see.

~

That was the night of our horrible fight,

The same night I saw the light.

With blood dripping down my face,

The look on his face I tried to replace.

~

I’ll never forget that day,

And the price I had to pay.
