What is love
Is it that
feeling in your
gut when you
Can't speak or
think is it
that feeling in
Your stomach when
You can't breathe
Or is it
that punch that
he threw at
You last week
when he told
You you were
Weak or is
It them tears
that you shed
When you cried
Yourself to sleep
Saying he loves
me he just
needs time to
think or is
It that pain
that you suffer
from the damages
to your brain
When he tied
You up in
the basement and
locked you down
With chains
leaving you there
for days making
you feel ashamed
Or is it
when he pulled
that gun out
and had the
perfect aim now
Your in a
Casket and you're
the only one
To blame and
It's cause you
didn't walk away
Cause you were
To ashamed sad
Part about it
Is you had
Your chance and
You let it
fade away

WELCOME ANAYA ~ Thanks for a brilliant first poem and HAPPY BIRTHDAY ! This is a REAL FU:LL ON poem ~ throbbing with Rhyme ~ Rhythm ~ Pathos ~ about a very very important subject DOMESTIC ABUSE ! I worked with the local YMCA FOYER ~ as Chairman ~ and we had to deal with many abused Young People (16 to 25) ~ THANK GOD they told someone and were rescued by Social Services. It's much too late if they are killed or kill themselves. This is a very empathetic site and several of our Members have been abused. Thanks for caring and sharing ~ love to be your MPS Friend ~ Yours BRIAN (UK) Please check my Poems ~ Thanks B.
