His sweet nothings whispered in my ear,
Made me feel loved, and calmed my fear.
But then he'd lash out, and I'd face the night,
And wonder if love could be so cruel and bright.

His apologies came with morning light,
And I'd forgive, and hold on tight.
But deep down, I knew it wasn't right,
To love someone who hurt me with all his might.

I tried to leave, to break the chains,
But love's a prison that's hard to explain.
I was trapped in a cycle of pain and shame,
And couldn't escape the love that bore his name.

But still I held on, through every fight,
Through every tear, and every sleepless night.
For in his eyes, I saw a glimmer of light,
A love that shone, though it wasn't always right.

For in his eyes, I saw a glimmer of light,A love that shone, though it wasn't always right
