Another anniversary with "Verbal Abuse"
Certainly, he's cursing me through personal views And, inadvertently, making my life a masterpiece of laughter and grief, forever wishing my disasters would cease With nothing to cherish, I must inherit mental tricks to bear with embarassment inside this "fixed marriage" picked by my parents Social workers take my "inner" child and scream it's my fault Blame my "husband" for this dream come false He made my birth apologize, He made me serve a hollow life, He was the tear in my ear that's kept my worth monopolized for years. But shallow eyes aren't cleared for everything No one's geared to see the wedding ring he placed on my mind. Though Jesus' name always eases the pain, "He" remains behind a chattered disguise and voiced plot. No matter how wise my choice got, no noise stops Help me strategize a boycott against this Joy cop I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage I need a divorce to resurrect my inner child's carriage I need full custody if you'll be judging me with fairness Because so much of me has since perished I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage." So many played into this nightmarish life that I might have cherished. And there is nothing of me more disparaged I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage" Throughout the battery, my fate was taxed When he changed his name to "Flattery," I'd take him back I chose the pretty deceptions over the ugly truths Because my empty collection of those who love me rules My psychological pressures travel so far beyond the optical measure, You're naive to think I bottled my treasures because I'm shy The "real me" should back the milk cartons But who could give a description to get the trail started? Our tongues are tied Before the gentle dissection from his insanity, Before all the mental digestion questions from my family not understanding me, I was entwirled in these mental whirlwinds for only trying to be a simple girlfriend So if you celebrate the sale of hate he delegates to me, going back since my nursery days, the "anniversary" stays And I'm the first to be slayed.... by everybody's verbal lack of mercy displayed. I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage" I need a divorce to resurrect my inner child's carriage I need full custody if you'll be judging me with fairness Because so much of me has since perished I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage" So many played into this nightmarish life that I might have cherished And there is nothing of me more disparaged I need a divorce to break this "fixed marriage" Written By: Jwyan (Eleven-Five) Johnson Verbal abuse stays with you. I dedicate this poem to every unnecessary tear amongst us, by us. Please speak carefully to your children and loved one's. Let them enjoy the "single life" God Bless
