if he hits
with words…actions…or fists
Get out.
let the law deal with his problems...
his problem is not you.
and just in case you didn’t know
assault with those deadly weapons
is a crime against God, nature & the universe
and finding 1,000 ways
to stay in a relationship
that might kill somebody
especially when that somebody might be you
is a death-wish that will come true.
don’t believe the hype…
no matter what anyone says
it’s not your fault.
abusers always blame others
and can’t see themselves
excuses are their reasons to live
no matter who dies in the end.
so get out while you can
save yourself and your life
home is where the heart lives
but the heart needs a safe place to abide...
and if you have to run
Get out
call for help
look for shelter in the dark
an outstretched hand…
a willing confidante…
or an anchor in the storm.
you keep holding on
hoping things will change
and afraid that he won’t
not knowing what to do
if you don’t Get out…before it’s too late
it’s OK to be afraid
but it’s not OK to hurt
to kill
or be killed
the law of the jungle
doesn’t apply at home
living like a trapped animal
because you’re too afraid to be alone…
Get out.
