heart is bleeding head is aching

my heart is bleeding
my head is aching

i am the only one
who can bring you down

you tell me you love me
and throw me around

kicking and screaming
chasing and hitting

bleeding and healing
but it'll never last

it's getting harder
to seek an exit

to find a way out
a way to escape

i don't know anymore
i don't care anymore

i gave up a while ago
hearing you scream

putting my hopes
down the drain

i can't figure it out
why do you hate me

why do you think
that you own me

so now i sit here
thinking of all of it

my heart is bleeding
my head is aching

the bruises are showing
again through the make-up

and i can't escape this hell
i'll try as long as it takes

people ask me the matter
i tell them it's nothing

they can see through it
through the lies

being the tortured one
is breaking me apart

limb from limb
i slowly fade away

into a place of sorrow
and muster the sadness

confusion rattles my mind
pain and lies rattle my soul

desperate for a savior and
gaining the speed of nothing

thoughts slowly thinking
about all of this

is this how it's suppose to be
is this how i'm supposed to live

my heart is bleeding
my head is aching

Author notes

this poem was written a while back when i was a sophmore. i had just found out that my friend Ashley was being abused by her boyfriend and she was afriad to admit it to anyone. this poem really reflects how she felt during that horrible relationship and she thanked my so much that she bought me a plasma screen TV....(um yea, where'd she get the money....?)

hope you guys like this one because i know that i sure as heck did. i think it's true and sticks to a very serious matter that needs to be taken care of.

thank you for reading ^^
