No Mercy
it ended in a path into the woods
tears and screaming
accusations
and no mercy
ugly ugly face and words
blame
and betrayal
he hung his head speechless
no longer could he defend this woman's evil soul
her unnatural stirrings
her nocturnal habits
her turning away
years of combat had weakened his marital state
suprised he felt
nothing
pain
nothing
nothing
numb
he turned
and walked away
careful to watch his back
she stood screaming at the woods
he no longer obeyed, he didn't need her.
