The Echoes of Your Chaos

i can feel your tension building i sit as quietly as i can you scream and shout, push me about is this what makes you feel like a man? you control me with your power i'm designed to be afraid you accuse me of having an affair and your the one that's been betrayed you humiliate me in front of others i look to the floor with shame my opinion doesn't matter, you tower over yes, i suppose i'm the one to blame i submit to your authority your abuse is getting worse this torture is slowly killing me is this all that i am worth? my cuts and bruises have healed now but the emotional pain still hurts he says to me i cannot leave and that he will kill me first how can i get help and tell others? when he has convinced me it's not all that bad it will never happen again there's no need to look so sad yop tell your friends it's all my fault it must be my imagination you put me down,throw me around restrain with intimidation you control all my thoughts and feelings it's natural to me now you're begging for my forgiveness i believe in you some how
