Laments of a wife to her abusive husband.

Please don't kick me there again,
it hurts so much you know.
I cannot put up with the pain,
I feel with every blow.

Please don't knee me down below,
you'll only cause me harm.
defences have become so slow,
since when you broke my arm.

Please don't slap me hard and good,
my lips too thick to speak.
Give me time to wipe the blood,
and turn the other cheek.

From heavy drinking, please refrain,
you know it drives you wild.
And please don't kick me there again,
you'll kill our unborn child

This could be the anthem for several organizations out there supporting abused women. Until we quit turning the other way and act on these abusers, the problem will continue.

It may be harsh, but it's very well written and appreciated by me and those who feel it even more personally.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
