My mother-in-law is heading to town and in preparation for her I had to clean out my cluttered den. As tedious a job as this was I came across a journal of my poetry from a decade ago. This had been something I was searching for this journal in particular because my best poetry was in here. Housework paid off again!
So tonight I will post one of my poems. This first poem is dedicated to women who suffer from domestic violence. No quotes tonight, just read and reflect. Please leave a comment thank you!
LOVE
Man, Woman, Love
Woman, Man, Hate
Man Slaps Woman
Dead In Her Face
Man,Woman,Love
Woman, Man, Fear
Woman Cowering In The
Corner Shedding Her Tears
Man, You Called Her Your
QUEEN
Yet You Spit In Her Face
If She Doesn't Tend To
Your Every Need
Woman, You Say That He Is Your
KING
As If You Are Proud To Claim
All The Scars He Now Brings
BAM! POW! CRASH!
SHRIEK! BOOM! YELP!
These Aren't The Sounds From Heaven
But Your Own Personal Hell
He Beat Me
She Pissed me Off
He Scares Me
She Needs To Shut Up
Funny How I Can't Recall
These Lines In Sonnets & Love Songs
Love Like This Started With Lies
Sometimes It Only Ends When One of You Dies
Man, Grow Up Do Like Your Name
Be Protector, Provider, The Lover & Friend
Be Loyal and Kind
Court Her With Your Soul
Stop Destroying Her Mind
Your Hands Should Caress That Angelic Face
Not Beat Her Down and Put Her in "Her Place"
Woman, Listen To Me
Be All That You Are
Who You Are Truly Meant To Be
A Giver Of Life To Be Cherished and Loved
STRONG, COURAGEOUS, BRAVE and PROUD
Roar For Yourself
Stop Living In Madness, Stop Living In Fear
It Was Never Your Fault
He Will Still Live If You Walk Away
Let Him Carry The Blame
Let Him Bear The Shame
Find Your Dignity, Find Yourself
Love Your Spirit
Love You, Love You, Love You Before All Else
Love You, Love You, Love You Before Someone Else
Love You, Love You,Love Me
For I Am You, You Live In Me
I Love You
I Love Me
LOVE
