prisoner in love

Contributed by bluebird on Tuesday, 25th January 2005 @ 12:21:55 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



Theres a look in her eyes
as she tries to cover behind his lies
Theres a look on her face
that her mama can't even recognize
Theres a fear in her walk
that even her family has to stop
and merely watch
they watch her pass
yet can't reach her at all
they kno shes out of reach,
no longer stands tall
hes beaten her down
slowly at first
step by step
it only got worse
now, she hides her face
and wont answer her calls
refuses to leave the house at all
shes a prisoner in love
a prisoner of her heart
for if she could leave it
She would have a brand new start

but she loves him too much
to walk away
been belittled so much,
she thinks she has to stay
she thinks there is no other way
for her heart has taken over her mind
and the man she loves
has beaten her blind
time after time

when its all over she hears the same lines
"Im sorry baby, remember next time
dont p iss me off, dont get out of line"
she shakes her head and agrees
if only he could see
hes killed her inside and out
and the next time
there wont be a way out
shes a prisoner of her own heart
if she could disown it,
She would have a brand new start

the beatings continue on and on
she apologizes and then hes gone
out wit his next girl of the day
comes back only to make it worse
ambulances, and hospitals
she continues to hurt

Theres a look in her eyes
as she still tries to hide his lies
Theres a look on her face
that her mama can't even recognize
hes beaten her black and blue
time and time again
he wont stop the pain
he wont stop the abuse
in the end the only thing that stops
is her heart,
its the final cure
to a prisoner in love
for now she is free & flys up above

Wow...this is such an intense write. It seemed so real to me. As if it was all happening right before my eyes. Great job.

As far as painting a vivid picture full of wild colors and movement... spot on!
