To the man who thinks she's just a game
You don't realise she's living in so much pain
In a world where society takes over your mind
She was just hoping you'd be the one to be kind
But you don't care
As long as you can pull her hair
She would go home and cry
At your little white lie
She would struggle to trust
She thinks every man just wants her for her bust
But you don't care
As long as you can pull her hair
She thinks every man is like you
Even some of her friends too
You broke down her heart and ripped it with your claws
Now when she looks in the mirror she only sees her flaws
She thinks your gone and out of her head
Until next week your back in her bed
But you don't care
As long as you can pull her hair
But what if she met a man
And he wasn't like you
He would sit back and listen
And cook for her too
You would be upset
And feel Like she disobeyed your trust
You only want her for one thing
Which is her bust
She would let every nice man go
To see if you would know
To see if you could tell
How madly she's fell
In love with you
If only you knew
But you don't care as long
as long as you can pull her hair
You've broken her walls
You didn't even tell her the rules
Of your stupid little game
And what you'd gain
You'd make her depressed
While she lay in bed stressed
About if you really cared
And why she's being treated so unfair
She would wonder if she's worth it
She would think she's not perfect
She would wonder why she kept running back
Why you'd never text her back
What looks she lacks
Only when you thought you must
Get some pictures of her bust
Why she couldn't be like the other girls
The one's with the curls
The one's that give you butterflies
When you look at the pictures and stare at their eyes
She scans the comments
To see if she's missed
Any other girls
That you have kissed
She would make an effort on her instagram
And hope you noticed
But you don't care
As long as you can pull her hair
What will you do when she's moved on
When she's finally gone
When she's realised the meaning of your game
When she just couldn't take anymore of the pain
Then you will care
Because you can't pull her hair
Because she'll never be there
When you finally realise she was never yours
When she's realised she's beautiful despite her flaws
And when she's blocked all your calls
And built back up her walls
Then you will care.

Sad read it is EF.
Why did she choose to be with such a shmuck? Or was she forced into it at gunpoint or something. Hope she learns her lesson.
I think sometimes people feel like they are stuck sometimes itβs not as easy just to leave
Well written ef, unfortunately there are many relationships where one partner has to endure much and is not able to leave for whatever reason. But mental and/or physical abuse is plainly wrong.
indeed, how insightfully you unfurl the hypocrisy within a society that 'chimes' to our young lady's - 'in the making':
'oh gal, he is only pulling your hair
cause' he like ya...
don't mind him none
a smile is all he asking for...'
then a decade later, they berate those same 'young ladies'
with their judgemental words:
''gal, why you 'let him'
treat you - like that?
doncha kow - no better...''
and they - are the wise words of the 'fairer sex',
one can only guess at how distorted an interpretation of 'attraction' the 'other side' has developed...
still, no excuses: 'some' men can make dirt look like gold dust,
but please, know - a lot
of 'good raw earth', is trampled on
by those same women, who can't see those fertile grounds
waiting patiently by their side, bored by the ease of accessibility and overzealous willingness,
choosing instead - to tame, those wild 'mustang' key holders and their promise of a 'thrill' ride...
forgive me for my uninvited sermon of a comment, I was inspired by your insightfully - well articulated depiction of a usually emotion addled subject...
a brilliant write!
thanks for sharing dear Poet
Well put! And I agree 10000%
Felt such sadness for your friend iv had friends in abusive marriages physical and mentally and it's so hard for them to see themselves as a victim it's just a relationship and we as a society excuse these people by not speaking of it. So well done you lovely words powerful.
