What Have I Done?

What Have I Done?

A Poem by MandaBear
"

Inspiration from "Curse of the golden flower" a foreign film.

"









What have I done wrong to earn your wrath?
What did I do to anger your fists?
What have I done to make you this way?
What have I done?

Your fists are filled with such anger 
Every hit more hateful than the last 
You take your feelings out on my body
What have I done?

You demand sex like it's the prize you've won
Somehow my body is just a slave waiting for its master
You show no mercy as you take vengeance on my soul 
What have I done?

You blame me for your short comings 
As if I had made you the way you are
Your soul is black and your heart blacker 
What have I done?

You delight in my pain of which you caused 
Watching me just sit and take it 
For waiting for death is the prize I seek 
What have I done to earn your wrath?

What have I done??

A powerful poem showing the strength of anger. Anger and violence lead to no-where. I liked the flow of thoughts leading to the very good question. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry. When someone always is facing anger and violence. Time to leave.

A great write. One thing got through the editing though." You so no mercy as you take vengeance on my soul"
I think you might have meant show. ;) otherwise I liked it!

You engender lots of empathy for the victim in this poem. It breaks my heart when I think that there are so many who are trapped and abused in such a horrible manner. You certainly capture the extremes with this poem and "Lets Make Love"
