Like She Loved Him

She loved him with all she had He hurt her like the useless brat She set the room up, candles glistening under the moonlight He broke in, shouted, slapped her and left without so much of a goodnight She tossed and turned, sleepless on the ground While he slept, wasted with alcohol around She shed her tears without a sound... He came back, reeking of stale beer and flipped her off with a rude sneer She nodded, quietly obliged and slept in the guest room, synchronized. One day when he returned, he looked possessed Growling like the pig he was, he held her by the hair. Pushed her down and tied her to a chair He was a monster in a man's disguise, if you haven't already guessed. He smirked, an evil smirk like those evil witches And slashed her wrist so hard it didn't heal even when she got stitches... She ran away with a thought in mind She won't let the past rewind. One day he'll need her like she needed him, One day he'll wait like she always waited One day he'll cry like she turned grim One day he'll know what it's like to be frustrated... One day he'll pant of all efforts One day he'll be all hopeless and curt One day he'll feel the unshed tears brim One day he'll love her like she loved him He'll feel all helpless, cold to the bone He'll do all possible to get her back home. He'll realize what he had is lost He'll die in hell, his bones will rot. The day when he's finally found her, he'll show up with a grin That day he'll love her but ??she won't love him...
