From The Heart

The comfort in his eyes...
The warmth of his embrace...
The charm in his smile...
The tenderness of his kiss...
The love in his words...

The anger in his eyes...
The force of his arms...
The insanity in his grin...
The pain of his back-hand...
The hatred in his voice...

My eyes fillled with tears...
My arms covered in bruises...
My bloody lip...
My black eye...
My trembling voice...
My shaking battered body...

Isn't it funny what love does to you?
