Those Will Be The Best Memories
Remember?
When We Walked Across The Beach,
Wind In My Hair As You Leaned In & Kissed Me On The Cheek,
Or The Time When You Said You'd Never Treat Me Like They Did?
Now I Lay In Bed & Play Those Memories In My Head.
You Cut Me Deep.
Watched Me Bleed & Weep,
Those Nights I Let You Creep Because I Didn't Want To Argue.
I Made That An Acception, That Was My Misconception.
I Had Cravings For Perception Which You Just Couldn't Provide.
I Loved & I Cared While You Abused & You Lied.
& I Cried.
The First Time You Hit Me.
Didn't Stand Up To You Because What Could That Get Me?
Another Slap To The Face?
One More Push To The Ground?
You Said, "Lay There And Don't Make A Sound."
So I Did, I Layed There Until You Left.
& Like Always I Waited In Bed Until You Came Back.
Those Days Are Over. I Promised Myself That.
But Those Will Surely Be The Best Memories.

A sad write but well expressed.Nice job.
I could never really understand why a woman stays with a man who physically abuses,nor can I comprehend an abusive male's perspective...obviously it's all about the control but I don't understand how he can be satisfied with a captured and bound woman.I once dated a woman who was in two abusive relationships.She tried to explain the thought process of the insanity of it all but it's just too complicated for words.
