bad wife

lately I have been noticing
this unwanted change
I feel like we are slipping
in a irreversible way

you have been acting different
in the way you talk to me
like you  can take me for granted
but I could be an absentee

you blow everything out of proportion
making it seem worse than what it is
but when it happens
you give me this long quiz

"why did this happen
were have you been
your such a whore
showing all that skin"

"you want boys to look at you
you do it on purpose
to make me look bad
you little whore, go wash off your face"

you have gotten so angry
like your possesed from within
some evil force controlling what you do
punching me across the chin

I cant speak unless spoken too
I'm forced to stay inside so as not to "be bad"
no matter what I answer to you
even when you come home a drunken old bag

when you come home worn out and tired
sex is a regular event
you climb on top of me, pushing inside and out of me
usually not being good enough leads to an argument

you slap me around and tell me what to do
but someday your going to be dead
I'm gonna come in while your sleeping
and put a bullet through your head

then we`ll see who's in control
when your lying on the floor begging for your life
and i laugh in your face and say
sorry, I'm just not a good wife

    i like this one too, even though its not true u speak for many women in this position. o and i think that you could use the word 'worthless' to rhyme with 'purpose' if you like . another good one!

    This is great! I love the sarcasm at the end but my favorite part that keeps resounding in my head is :"you have gotten so angry
    like your possesed from within
    some evil force controlling what you do
    punching me across the chin"
    It's a beautiful piece. Keep writing hun! you'll be known everywhere one day.

    wow... that would suck to have a husban like that, i would say fuck the shoting him, only cause i wouldnt want to go to jail for it, but devorise him in stead. i would kick him to the curb and tell him to stay out of my life, change all the locks on the doors! other than that thoughs are just my opinons. you did a really good job at writing this. you can feel the emotions radeat off of it. the hurt and anger, it's very strong in this piece. good job on exprecing them. the flow goes together well and the discription is good. good job! ~pixie~

    awesome

    Well it was true for me. My ex was very abusive. I cant belive that you dont know from first hand. You hit it right on the nail. Brings back lots of painful memories to me but that is a good think. Makes me sure I dont want to ever go back. Thanks dor sharing, ~~Shannon~~

    It's hard to imagine this was written from imagination and not experience! Good job on developing such an emotional impact.

    This is a very powerful poem its 99 percent of the women in the world are being beaten by their husbands and called trashy names that they dont deserve - Think for a moment most women act on an impulse when push comes to shove they do what their called to get even - and then these guys beat them this worlds already gone to hell and my freinds the devils closing in on mankind..

    I hate guys that think they can tell you what to do.. how to dress, wear your hair, put on your makeup and push you around if they don't thnk that something is good enough..fuck them!
    You are you and you should not have to change for any man, no matter how hot they are or what they say.

    i love this poem!! it completely symbolizes how women (or even men) of abuse will eventually reach their breaking point. I wonder how you came up with this idea of abuse. It's so real that i'm thinking that it actually happened to you, or to someone you know. Well, if it has, my apologies go out and if you ever need someone to talk to, i'm here. I'm adding you to my favorites.

    "why did this happen

    These lines imparticular hit me hard. You did a wonderful job of making this seem as a real situation. You are definitely one hell of a talented poet.
