Your Wrong
I walk on eggshells hoping he does not explode,
into a burst of anger that only me he shows,
that he wont say that word i know is going to hurt me,
and if i try to fight back i know he will desert me,
so i lower my voice and plead quite quietly,
for the pain to go away even if it does not leave silently,
but no matter how i react i know it will not matter,
because then he begins to yell so loud it makes my body shatter,
i know this is not right but i cant find the strength to leave,
im scared of stepping forward because im afraid my heart will bleed,
its been stabbed and bruised and its aching with every beat.
what happened to the girl i knew her head is now always at her feet,
no one understands her everyone believes his lies,
and even through her tears no one answers any of her cries,
blame is shifted backwards she takes it on her shoulders,
she wished someone would of warned her someone would of told her,
everyone says that she is wrong and to blame for his own actions,
her jaw drops in shock at his supporters' reactions,
she is not allowed to talk or to of herself defend,
if she dare try its over its the end,
its a losing battle she possesses no sword no armor,
a free ranged target for him its easy to harm her,
he has no remorse nothing to regret,
because if she speaks against it a blaming scene is set,
she is wrong for making him feel guilty and pointing out the truth,
because then she is overreacting and she is wrong for feeling used,
so in the end of it all she is the cause of his misery,
and he says he is better off without her and that he wants to be set free
