Close your eyes and open your mind

Now look closely

Can you see what I see.

Nothing but darkness mostly.

My eyes were blackened and face was swollen

I have footprint bruises in my side

where he consistently kick me in the colon.

    If he only knew

His punches and deadly looks

gave me scary dreams

And that his words alone

damaged my self-esteem.

    If he only knew

The only time I felt safe

and he showed me much respect

Was when he held me tightly

and gently kissed my neck.

   If he only knew

There were many nights

I didn’t want to be bothered

he didnt really care.

he made me go thought long nights and many hour of sex

Because all he cared about

was a good climax.
