A Woman's Story

I cannot remember the words you said
Through this throbbing within my head
But I do recall the terror of before

As I lay curled up on the floor

All I said was "drunk again"
When suddenly I felt this tremendous pain
Swearing and cursing as you let fly
I crumble in agony not wishing to die

Bleeding and bruised from punishment dealt
You stand above me unbuckling your belt
Panic sets in as you grab my hair
And bend me over that well used chair

After the pain of unnatural abuse
You move away and let me loose
Your lust now quenched via force
It's off to bed with no remorse

You awake with sorrow and undying love
As you pray forgiveness from the heavens above
Promising never to repeat the crime
But I know deep down it's only a matter of time
