Through Out The Years

Through out the years
She didn't voice her opinion
She kept quiet out of fear
Out fear that he would hurt her again
Through out the years
She kept her tears to herself
She dared not cry in front of others
Through out the years
She took blows that he threw at her
Even though she didnothing wrong
Through out the years
People would ask her how she got her bruises
She would lie
But if the people knew he was the one who gave her those bruises
She would make up excuses for him

They would say “you need to get out”
She was too afraid to leave him
So she would say “he needs me”
Knowing he didn't
But still she never left him
Through out the years
She never left his side…
Even though she wanted too…
