Buried Rage - Part 2

All that is left of her now Is a suspicious, damaged woman Whose bitter cynicism engulfs her For all she can see in any man now Is the abuse he will inflict on her The lies he will tell her The mind games he will play with her The way he will one day betray her The way he will stop loving her The way he will let her down The way he will use his power and dominance Over her to take advantage of her Because that is all that she has known She has not been enlightened to Any other ending to her story She would not know Prince Charming if she laid eyes on him Because she never knew such a man could exist While you are well aware Of the demons that haunt her There is no cessation of the actions That provoke her wrath Ignoring the warnings Treating her ghosts and battle scars As a trivial dilemma This is not a mere flaw in her personality It is who she is Her emotions consume her And motivate her every deed Saintly or malicious If you show no care in this pristine meadow You will unleash the child in her That is screaming for the justice that has forsaken her Then the enraged, distrustful woman will emerge Together creating a monstrous tornado That will spin violently out of control Giving her justice finally through acts full of Love, caring, trust, kindness, sensitivity and honesty Will bring out the sweet, loving compassionate woman That was been locked inside her soul Waiting to be released so she can begin a new life That has the fairytale ending
