DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

When trust is broken 
Feelings start fading 
In love you become lazy or crazy
Can't confide in each other
A place of peace, calm or serenity 
Now a battlefield, steadily pouring out aggression on each other.

Two hearts that caress and defend each other
Start bruising or humiliating each other
As they wrestle 
The children watch, then start screaming 
Don't forget it's a programming 
Scrambling their imagination
Thinking marriage is a warfare not a welfare.

Domestic Violence
A stigma, a mind disrupter
That needs time and love
To eliminate the trauma it caused 
Many more to say, but when words are too much;
It becomes void, say no to domestic violence!!!
