Emotions, Unglued

A woman tattered and torn.
Wishing she had never been born.

Terrified all the time.
We've all heard of this kind.

They beat and hurt the ones they love.
She's thinking this time he'll send her above.

Running and hiding is her life.
He wonders why she won't be his wife.

Tonight he seemed extra mad.
Like he was losing his mind so, so sad.

He kept calling time after time.
Telling her everything is fine.

He scared her so bad by what he had said.
She knew if she went home she would be dead.

He said he'd cut her in pieces and throw her in the river.
That's enough to make anyone quiver.

That night while she was hidden away,
he told her, ' when I see you your going to pay.'

Scared to death and not knowing what to say.
She learned, he took his own life the very next day.

If she had went home that fateful night,
she would have been part of that horrible sight.

Feeling guilty and his family saying she's to blame.
While she was beaten, none of them ever came.

Soon she will see that it is not her fault.
What his family says take with a grain of salt.

As time goes by she will be just fine.
Next time she will be able to see the signs.

When they treat you bad that very first time,
you need to leave before you lose your mind.....
