Onwards

She was something soft on the eyes something to mend his broken heart tarring down everything she had built , was that his plan from the start. guns were pointed and bullets were shot he than soon realized that everything she had offered can not be bought She picked up the broken pieces and thought to try again thinking maybe he will love me if I tried to be a better friend. He figured out she wouldn't give up and would continue to try that she dropped everything in her life and he was the only thing in her eyes miserable nights turned into unproductive days she continued on with this cycle not questioning how she stays Her expressions became empty and her friends started to worry always the same answer with a smile as her eyes would get blurry The bruises left on her heart became to show on her skin stopped going out in public as much and people would ask where she's been the truth couldn't come out so her lips formed more lies how could she explain that this is all caused by just one guy.. He would tell her he loved her and that she was the one that when things would get better it would go back to being fun months went by and her stomach started to grow as the weeks went by and more and more bruises continued to show. She sat him down one night and stared into his eyes She said " once this baby is born I will say my goodbyes" He laughed in her face knowing she would never leave that even if she did she would come back from the grief. The bigger she got the more they would fight now her soul seemed broken and her light not so bright The due date came and she gave birth to their son made secret plans to pack their bags and just run the words he spit got worse and the punches got harder She tried to keep in line just the way he had taught her The love she once had turned into a large amount of hate endless nights of worry wondering if this is her fate she refused for her son to witness this any longer that she would gain the strength for both of them and be stronger another night but this time he came back to no one around couldn't smell anything and didn't hear a single sound She never looked back and slowly started to learn how to smile her son needed her and he's needed her for a while. She had taught herself a valuable lesson that sometimes its worse to stay because living each day in misery just isn't the way.
