My Cruel Mistake

You love to see me suffer
from the pain you inflict.
You smile your devilish smile
when you raise your hand
and see me flinch.
When I retreat you just come after.
Hitting me with blows
as I hear your laughter.
When I think you're done 
you prove me wrong.
You pull me into your bed
then sing your song.
In and out as I scream in pain.
In and out as I cry in shame.

Two comments: your reader feels your pain, and the your in the ninth line should be you're. Good write.
