Abusive Love
she didnt want to live in fear
so the smoke filled up the air
from the gun that she just shot
as the bullet pierced his heart
they say love hurts and it is true
but when someone turns on you
and your life is flipped around
on the day that you have found
the man you thought would always care
left you with bruises everywhere
as his fists came at full force
leaving you to scream and toss
knowing that his strength will grow
at each punch that he will throw
as your left with no defense
and he takes away your strength
you lose control of your whole world
when he turns on his little girl
that is small and scared to death
as strong holds take away her breath
you watch in horror and decide
no one will take away her life
grabbing the gun you crawl around
and drop that a--hole to the ground
