Sigh…Shadows Of What Love Was Meant To Be, And It's Consequence

She let out a sigh, as she sat on the bed,

a sign that she was set to quit.

He said, what is goin on in your head?

made you let out a gasp, like you did?

*

As the mood in the room and his head took a spin,

she gave him that, "you know why I did," grin.

He had only seen it one time in his life,

he knew, he was a dead man on ice that is thin.

*

The last time he saw that dead look in her eye,

was the day he used his fist, like a weak, lame ass guy.

She said, you need to get away from me, fast,

that was your one time, it will be your last.

*

No love lets you get away with a slap,

try me once more, I'll put a cap in your ass.

"What you give, has a way to go back that way too,"

I will not be the girl who will take this crap, from you.

*

No, you will not get to see me cry,

and you won't hear me, when I come.

But lay your fist on me and I,

will be sure, that you are done.

*

I took one last time, on the chin,

two, is too many to take.

The odds you walk away are thin,

not the kind of odds you want to make.

*

The time to hear my word, is now....

run, boy, run, your time has run out!
