I love myself today

I love myself today.

And I remember why.

He beat me with his hands.

And hit me until cried.

Bruises on my back.

Scars under my eyes.

Knife wounds that are hacked.

Bite marks and nail scratchings that are running down my thighs.

I cried until I woke.

And went outside to smoke.

Then I sat in a bath,

And thought about my wrath.

The light darkened and I remember his eyes,

I saw a lot of evilness,

Crawling in and out with lies.

I wish that I loved him more,

But what would I do that for?

He beat me every night.

And I didn't have the strength to put up a fight.

Sat in freedom in her cell.

Hopes her husband rots in Hell.

Burning in agony and screaming in pain.

Hopes that he goes totally insane.

I think the Devil got what he wanted.

A sad man's soul.

Old & taunted.

He got married to a woman,

Beautiful & Great.

They were brought together by,

Love & strong Fate.

She began to drink,

She was a awful mess,

She didn't have the guts to go and confess.

To beat your wife, child, or spouse.

Is like a cat killing a mouse.

It hurts and scars, the mind, body, and soul.

So think about your thoughtless goal.
