Domestic Violence the Broken Promise

By Ablebody Peckawood

Just come a little bit closer to me. What do you mean we're not meant to be?
Is your dislocated jaw giving you problems?
It's no mystery that your living in misery. This time I swear it will be different.
Awww what is that see, is that a tear? Well let me wipe it away with my fist! Oh my god my love I am so sorry! I promise that I will change.
You know you can't hide, that I know you're plotting my families genocide!
Stop your lying! You trifling bitch! You dirty whore! Now get up off the motherfucking floor!
Please baby please breathe! I was only joking, I just wanted to tease.
Oh god help me what have I done? Oh no I've done it again!
