Why

You have a black eye, your family asks what happened, and you make up some lie. You don’t go around because now you’re ashamed, and all the while he tells you, you’re the blame His words tear away your hopes and the beatings drown your dreams. The things he puts you through are not just cruel, they’re down right mean You no longer have any friends, you don’t even believe in yourself Right now you don’t even love you let alone someone else Take a minute think: you are not the blame; there is no reason To be ashamed; Stop the violence, walk away from the abuse You don’t have put up with the pain, or make an excuse You are not the blame, so don’t dare be ashamed He does not deserve your love, for he doesn’t have love For himself, that’s why he goes through life belittling, fighting, totally mistreating someone else. You have to realize you are the stronger of the two. His only strength is in the misery that he causes you By Gale Hall ________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.
