Black and Blue

Hiding the bruises for such a long time
i dont know how much longer i can take it
knowning that it will never change
i just sit there and allow the pain

hurting deep inside and out
wanting and yearning for a way out
thinking that all i can do is scream and shout
as my soul and heart reaches out

laying on the floor in my own blood
as my tears flow down like a big flood
the pain doesnt sease to stop
as he hits me in the head with a pot

beating me every day as he knows i stay
but not out of love but fear
wishing that i had someone here
to save me from this horrible beating

these memories haunt my past
as they do now with my future
these memories hurt my life and my heart
and have torn my relationships apart
