Domestic Violence

By rondant

You say you love me, but how can I tell
When all you do is fuss and yell
We never talk about anything real
Tell me, do you even care?
When peoples around your nice as can be
But behind close doors, wouldn't they like to see
I knew I loved you once before
But today, I feel like walking out that door
My husband beats me, how could this be?
I'm embarrased, but in need of my family
I am not alone, and that's for sure
He'll kill me for sure if I ever come back




I have a wonderful husbansd that would never abuse me.I just like to write about bad things. My mom was in some bad relationships when I was growing up...so I know what happens behind close doors. Thank God, I have a great hubby!!
