Till death do us part
we cried to each other
Holding hand in hand
not knowing the promise will end.
I'm alone and cold
been torn and thrown
battered and bruised
but still I love you.
I'm scared and confused
been shoved and hit
juggled and twisted
but still i love you.
You've hurt me once
You've hurt me twice
apologized and moved on
to the next abusive state.
I'm weak and slow
been crying all night long
tired and a mess
but still i love you.
I'm black and blue
been scared all my life
shot and stabbed
but still i love you.
You've lied and cheated
blamed and beated
apologized once again
and then moved another step ahead.
I've loved you my whole life
and forever i shall still
as long as you promise to touch Me
hurting me as you do.
Till death do us part
we cried to each other
Holding hand in hand
not knowing the promise will end.
I'm cold and motionless
been broken and bent
deafened and soundless
and dead I am. . .
But I'll still love you
Author notes
It is in the catagorie of abuse just to let anyone know and for the contest..i'll put it in the catagorie "personal"
This poem is not towared anyone so don't freak. I felt like writing a poem and this is what came out. Yes it is an abusive poem about a wife who is abused by her husband and no matter how bad he treats her, she won't give up loving him. And in the end he kills her & still she'll love him. And your prolly wondering why she'll still love him aslong has he touches her? Because she feels that the only time he pays any attention to her is when he's hurtting her. So yea any other questions feel free to ask me.

I have never been abused by someone, but by my own self. I've been hurassed and mentaly abused, but not exactly physically. I know it must be hard knowing that someone u loved soo much would actually be so cruel and hurt you in such a way. But your still alive. The next day is always brighter than the last and it gives you another chance at life. I believe my past made me stronger and i'm more careful about what i do. Life goes on..it never stops for anyone..even when ur gone. Hang in there and just remember those who have not hurt you and those who truly love you.
If anyone who has been abused wants to talk.
Message me. I'm open to anything.

The good thing about this is that even though it's long, the words just kind of flew away. I read it very fast, but still took in every word. I really know where you are coming from with this - I think in general women can be too forgiving. Just keep on loving the guy, even when they do us wrong. Crazy!

This poem is so emotional and it's sadly reality for some women and men. I'm glad you wrote this, I learned along time ago about something that this poem emphasizes. There's a right and a wrong way to love somebody.
