Why Did You Beat Me

What did I do to deserve this pain? All I ever did was the love you But all you ever wanted to do is strike me with the back of your hand 5 years later And you are still the same person We first started to date It was great But as the days turn into weeks And the weeks turn into months And the months turn into years The abuse you gave me Only got worse I can't sit here and take it any longer I've decided to leave today And when I walked to the front door With my bags pack You got in my face and ask where you think you’re going I said I'm leaving you You raised your hand to me Now I'm in the Hospital With the cops at my bedside Asking me what happen All I could say was It was your entire fault.

You know what? I enjoyed reading your poem, Kristina. And I'm also glad that you left your loser boyfriend. He's a loser. And if I were to be your real boyfriend, I'd treat you with the respect you really deserve. And no, I'm not like those other guys who are abusive toward their women.
