I Never Chose



Insults,
Slaps,
Kicks,
Punches,

My punishment I receive,
Past midnight it is, I stayed up all night waiting till I fell asleep on the couch,
Then you walk in,
Waking me up with... Insults,
Slaps, kicks and punches...
Reason being I slept instead of waiting for you and serve you as my husband
Last week I received 4 stitches,
I lied to the hospital about what happened.

I am a good for nothing woman...
Exactly how you put it,
Late night calls and texting filled with giggles and more that I'd rather keep to myself,
I guess all work calls are like that since I know nothing... To you.

Every weekend off you go,
You say it is " a work thing"
I know better than that.
I gave up asking for my body had too much to take... I had to take care of my life.
You provide.
Yes you do, but does it give you the audacity to look down upon me?

Lipstick stained shirts,
Rubber filled pockets,
"femme" perfumes all over your dirty laundry is what I get after "work things" when you arrive...
Who am I to ask? Maybe if the work thing came and took my spot as a wife.

Face so dull,
Not even make up can fix me,
You ripped me off everything...
I gave up practising medicine because I loved you,
Because we were all ready to start a family...
My BARRENNESS crushed us all,
It changed you to a monster...

Breaking every part of whats left of me
Breaking my heart, my love, my house, my trust, my body...
How you see me as no good...
Just because I can not give life,
I never chose this... FREE ME!...
