Within His Skin

A broken man abuses his even more broken wife.

He has a knife,

She fears for her life.

He laughes, a horrible sound.

Her writsts are bound,

She falls to the ground.

Why would he kill her?

For him, her fear is a thriller.

His kindness will not fill her.

She is ungrateful,

Even hateful,

Of the fateful,

Moments that he needs to abuse,

Needs to use,

Needs to bruise,

The woman that never knew this side,

Who must abide,

To the demon that likes to hide,

Within his Skin.
