He Came At Me

My heart's hinged door forcefully burst
But the instant coffee I owned was decaf!
My eyes died, parched of thurst,
My tearless decision was just to laugh.

These beatings last forever,
But I find your love is pain.
Drag me up the stairs; together...
Black eyed me, bruised with you again.

Hobbling always, resilient is me.
Keeping each beat with heartfelt rapidity.
Time never winds down, failing to free me.
So blowing blood out my nose~ I'm endless stupidity!

OMG.... Glad to read (below) that this isn't/wasn't you, Marcela. Pretty stark, graphic stuff there. Peace, Gershon

Oh my, Marcela. Tell me this is not your own personal experience. If so, please, please get some help. Get away from this abuser who will seriously harm you or kill you. You are a strong, talented woman! My heart aches for you!
