It's so easy to say
she deserves it.
it's so easy to disregard
what you do not know.
The pain in her eyes,
the ringing in her ears,
as she slides down the wall
with glass in her hair.
It's so easy to dismiss her
because she allows it.
The hidden bruises,
the blood in her mouth.
It's so easy to ignore her
when society says
to mind your business.
It's so easy to blame her
because "She is just a bitch"
while she she walks on eggshells,
concussed with broken ribs.
It's so easy to forget her
when she's dead.

Powerful it screams out of the darkness. It calls for help that falls on deaf ears. There is no excuse for abuse. A strong write.
No excuse and Thank you!
