She Got Flowers Today
By Shellon Williams
She got flowers today
Today of all day when she prepared a proper home cooked meal
And decided to clean
He chose to still be mean
He shouted on her in front of her friends
Has if embarrassing her wasn’t enough
When they left he punched on her so badly
The next day the bruises were so visible she couldn’t even pretend
She got flowers today
He told her sorry but still hit her again even harder than the last time,
She kicked and she screamed
Yelling baby please
He give her one more squeeze
A squeeze to the neck that had her wheezing
Nothing she did seemed to please him
She got flowers today
Only thing this time she woke up and saw him by her bed side
Saying sorry again
Not her bed but a bed in a cold place call a hospital
The flowers by her bed side looked like poison ivy because she was in so much misery
Asking God please help me
But she still went back
She got flowers again today
but today was the last day and the saddest day
this day would have never happened this way if she never chose to endure the abuse and stayed
The day she got flowers last was the day he brutally took her life away
So at her funeral she got flowers that day
