THE ABUSED MAN!

In utter desperation
I let anger to my surface rise.
To survive I had to do it,
Or drown in the tears I’ve cried.
I fell in love with an abused woman.
She was battered and bruised and marred.
But that girl became my princess,
Though she was emotionally scarred.
The men that did this to her,
Also did their deeds to me.
For in her fear and trembling,
Her passions aren’t there to see.
She always said she needed
Just a little bit more time.
In this fifth year my arms are still empty,
And my bed is still only mine.
My patience has it’s limits.
The letter I sent said goodbye!
I wish I had not sent it.
Without her I’d just as soon die.
How long should I be patient?
I’m a weak and lowly man.
I exist of only flesh and blood,
Will she ever take my hand?
In life there is uncertainty.
But one thing cannot be confused.
Those evil men who harmed her,
Have also me---ABUSED!
THOUGHT: HOW LONG SHOULD A MAN BE PATIENT,
AND LIVE WITHOUT ANY AFFECTION?

Robert,
This is really something. A look at abuse from yet another side..there are so many sides. I submitted a poem on this subjuct just this morning.
About your Thought....I guess anyone should only be patient until they cannot any more. I do not believe the commitments we make to one another in marriage include losing ourselves...being miserable. Different people can handle more then others.
This is an Excellent write..it touched my heart.
Sharon;) |
