My World Poem by Louise Walker

I've no idea what to say to you.
You watched the world collapse on me.
You cheated, lied and beat me.
<i>You beat me black and blue.</i>

I met you once, I met you twice,
Such a lovely person, I thought,
Those first few weeks were paradise.
<i>I got lost in my train of thoughts.</i>

Things changed, you hit me.
'I fell down the stairs' I'd say.
I couldn't face that you were beating me.
<i>I made excuses day after day.

For who would believe a guy like me
Would surrender to his lover.
His lover who seems so caring, </i>
So caring like no other.
