BROKEN PROMISEA Poem by Wasekera S Chiphazi BandaWoman inlove with her abusive husband, but she cant leave because he keeps promising her he will change
These bruises bare witness to the wickedness I endure,
This love will be the end of me But I believe in us, So I try to see the best in worst situations. Thoughts of leaving come across but I quickly brush them off. My man He hits me, Then he tells me he loves me so I stay, You see I never met a soul like him before So everytime he says he will change I believe him. My man He hurts me The anger in his eyes sends shivers to my soul He strangles me and I scream But he doesn't let go. Then he kisses me passionately and says He will change I believe him,so I stay His demons rise and He pushes me to the wall In that moment,he doesn't care if I fall I cry but he doesn't stop I taste my own fear in the air What if tomorrow is too late for us I say I will leave Then he holds me and makes love to me He compliments me, So I give him another chance My man He beats me But he says he will change I believe him So I stay... © 2015 Wasekera S Chiphazi BandaAuthor's Note
