His Wrath

A wife in a abusive marriage!

Bruised and battered from your fury wrath,

I pray for deliverance.

You spew out how disgraceful I am with wicked lips.

Love for me has vanished from your heart.

Did you ever love me?

 

You seize me with such potency.

I beg for mercy.

Your wrath is bountiful, never runs dry.

Your countenance mirrors your true self.

 

Enlighten me where I went wrong.

your eyes show silent laughter.

Evil flows through your veins,

spilling out like lava erupting from a volcano.

 

Oppressions weigh heavy on my heart.

Meditation keeps me going,

strengthens me to face each day.

But I'm growing tired, weak,

I want to rest.

Sometimes I beg for the sleep of death.

Very deep indeed, I can see that it comes from the heart, because it’s what we all face in life.
Excellent write.

[Tina Kline]

Dark and ominous, showing how awful violence can be. Shows, too, how being in a bad relationship can drain you of your life energy.

[Bette]

well. i think she needs to take a lamp and bash his a*s over the head with it and kick him the hell out, or feed him something that will mess him up for a week. lol! but i must say, having been here, its hard to get out of a bad relationship... once i was out though.... you will never catch me back in one!

[DeViouS]

Deep. These two lines particularly evoke the imagination for me:
`Evil flows through your veins,
spilling out like lava erupting from a volcano.'
They speak at different levels: Physical, emotional and fiery.
`You spew out' also relates to the same picture. Well done

This was a very thought provoking poem. I think that this should be a good piece to help relate to women who need understanding and to know someone cares how they feel. Very nicely done.

You wrote it almost like a song, but as a poem it shows the dark side of a man, unhappy, confused, and insecure, a weak man unable to cope with his wifes love, and therefore tries to destroy the one thing he has thats worth anything to him, the only way out for the woman is to give up and leave or face the fact that she may die by the hand of the one she loves.
