    Delirious

    I tremble underneath a violent fist
    This time I prayed I hoped he'd miss
    Looking around I see the mess
    This time I think he's done his best

    Everything's broken
    I can feel all the pain
    The room starts spinning
    I think he's going insane

    My face is swollen
    I can't feel my feet
    I can see the blood dripping
    All over the seat

    Where is he taking me
    I've already lost track
    Two of us going
    Only one coming back

    I dont really know
    What happened this time
    To set off his temper
    To poison his mind

    I try to make excuses
    For his actions again
    But this time its deadly
    I'm not going to win

    My arm is turning colors
    As I beg for my life
    How can I escape him
    And his terrifying knife

    He stops the car slowly
    As I look around
    He pulls me from the front seat
    And throws me to the ground

    Oh dear God
    It's happening again
    Please someone save me
    From what's about to begin

    He drags me by my hair
    Down a treacherous path
    Something I know so well
    His merciless wrath

    He grabs me by the neck
    And into his dark eyes I stare
    As I lose consciousness
    While I'm laying there

    I start to come to
    As he raises the knife
    Oh God please deliver me
    From this monstrous life

    He stops in mid stroke
    Taking a breath
    Having second thoughts
    I'm not sure what is left

    He gets back in the car
    And he drives away
    I lay there broken and bleeding
    To face another day

    I cried. Been there. I left before it escalated that far though. Still don't want to think about it!

    damn... :(

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
