As you take my hand I feel the warmth,
I know I am safe here with you holding on.
As you walk along with me I feel proud,
I know you love me just the way I am.
As you stop and turn to face me I feel the connection in our eyes,
I know this feeling very well.
As you push me back to the wall I feel our hearts tear apart,
I know you won't hurt me, not if I curl up small.
As you throw me on the floor I feel the resentment,
I know you won't break me if I stay quiet.
As you throw the pictures at me, I feel the memories shatter,
I know you don't mean what you are doing to me.
As you shout right up close to my face, I feel the change of your spirit and heart.
I knew we wouldnt last forever
As you hit me one last time with that lamp, I feel the hatred in your strength.
I know you don't love me anymore.
As you kick the dirt over my cold still body, I am numb and feel nothing.
I knew you wouldn't always care.
