Love Justice of Life

The diamond ring you gave me did not remove the pain. You must know it is not that simple to forgive. The bouquet of roses you sent on Valentine did not remove the bruise. A man's love does not justify abuse. You snap now just from intimate conversation. In the next moments, you ask me are you still my baby. Vindictive you expect me to be. You shower me with presents endlessly. My love seems to rationalize your next move. I am in a domestic violent relationship with you. Do I continue to stay? I am here until I find a better way. You come home all vile and bombed. Even if I am asleep, you will awaken me to ask me am I still your woman. All I do is smile and state you are my man because you pave the way. Soon you will fall asleep and your stupor will please me. Am I in love with you? Of course, I am. You take care of home boo. Now, today, you ask me to marry you. I responded with the question do you think our love is true. You stated that I know you can be verbal abusive but “Baby don’t I always find a resolution.” I provide a smile and a kiss. “Baby, I will marry you next year.” On my finger is the diamond ring. Love justice of life is insight refined. I am in position to sequester as the procrastinator. You are the navigator. _________________________________________| Penned on January 04, 2015!

Oh...this touched my heart, Verlena. It is such an important subject. Many suffer from abuse in many different forms. You've done great justice to the topic. A wonderful write. Hugs

Is it amazing how we with stay with a charmer for all the right reason and not rationalize why we should leave him? Thanks for your comment Richard... Verlena

There is no justice in abuse . . . abuse is a loveless foe . . . your poem made my heart ache.
