Today I am walking on egg shells so I won't piss him off
It's difficult to keep quiet, I am sick with a cough
But I will put a towel over my mouth and not make a sound
He won't even notice if I am around.
This is the kind of day that I know can be a nightmare,
Yeah it is no way to live and straight up not fair.
His friends come over and I stay in the room so I won't get accused
After they leave, he starts to believe crazy stuff, and I am abused.
I try and defend myself but with every word comes a hit,
He has made my face a punching bag
and loves practicing on it.
People talk lies and he listens, then beats me up over lies,
He says I am a whore and that I am screwing other guys.
I love him, I don't leave him, keep waiting for a miracle to come true,
I look into the mirror and all I see is black and blue....

He dont deserve you :-/
And tell him i said it,
i am not that hard to find,,,,,,,,,,,,

I feel your pain Donna ......I walked that road once ......

your poem is so wonderful you need to smile
you are a women and no longer a child
if he is still being you through abuse
to need to cut him loose
for he is not your king
if he believes those lies which is nothing
love should be special and pure
not knocked down sick with no cure



i love your poems......i sense that you been through so much pain in your life but u are smart for writing it out.

Thank You For Responding To My Poem But These Poems I Write Are Not All About Me, This One About Abuse Is Not About Me, But Thank You For Your Words Of Advise And Comfort, It Is Greatly Appreciated.... Donna 01-03-06

I am sorry but he's a fucking asshole!!! I've been hit and have called bad names as well but your situation, sounds really, really, aweful. Does he even want to get help? Like counceling or anger management? Do you have kids there in the home living with you guys? Because that is no way to live life. He sounds unreasonable to deal with, at any time. He sounds like someone, that needs a good old fashioned ass wippin! He sounds so insecure and down right mean. I feel for you and hope that you will get the courage to leave him someday soon, before he kills you. Please! Some cases, that's where a situation like yours, ends up. You know? Seriously! Take care of yourself. There are people out there who are willing to help you. You should know that you deserve better, much better than that. And that it is not your fault that he is this way. He was that way before you met him, for whatever the reasons. And without help, he will not change but get worse. Sometimes, people will treat you the way you allow them to treat you. Think more of yourself! Be good to yourself. You have a right, as much as anyone else does, to live a safe and happy life, without being hit or name called. And believe that because it's true. Pray to God for help. It does work. But also, God wants to see us to sometimes, help ourselves. Talk to somebody on a domestic violence hotline or at a shelter. People do care. And they are only happy to help you. Remember that. I wish you the best. You sound like a really nice person. He should be ashamed of himself. PM me anytime you'd like to and I will get back to you asap, okay?:o
Love, Sheila

the first time i had to stay in the room until my husbands company left-to not get accused-was the first day i jumped out the window.he beat me when they left-i think he wanted to go with them but he figured i couldnt be trusted to be in my place when he got bac.honey you are too good for him.i am sorry if this hurts you but you need to leave him.he needs to learn what he is doing is destroying yall's relationship.maybe leaving him is the only way for him to realize that the woman he loves AND BEATS is tired and is strong enough to leave him. at PTO we love you and we pray you stay safe.
