About abuse and heartache and wife finally decides to leave her abuser.

We have been married for twenty-seven years,
All I have are memories of living with fears.
So many nights you came home and hit me,
That all I wanted to do was flee.

The pain you have caused me,
Hurt me to such a great degree.
You will never know how I feel,
Everything you have done is surreal.

I can never forget those times,
To me it is truly a brutal crime.
My heart has been stomped on,
That I feel like a black swan.

I have such little self-esteem inside,
That all I want to do, is run and hide.
I have learned that heartache and despair,
Truly do not make a great pair.

Each day you made me die a little more inside.
To this, my heart was left with no more pride.
Even though we were married for so long,
Down inside, I'm no longer that strong.

You've made me so sad and blue,
And I can no longer count on you,
I don't need this heartache in my life anymore,
So I think it's time for you to hit that door.
