Perfect Monster

He laughs and laughs
His eyes turned to stone
He brings down his fist
And cracks another bone

The beauty of what was
The love of my life
Is now holding
My neck to a knife

That liquid poison, alcohol,
Is running strong through his veins
As he cuts my arms slowly
Pulpy skin is all that remains

"Do you love me now?"
He asks, eyes glistening red
I look up at him and stare
"I wish you were dead."

He laughs yet again
Amused by my retort
I stare at him hard
Waiting for more

He starts on my arms again
But accidentally cuts too deep
I slowly but surely
Fall into a deep sleep

"Wait, no I love you!"
He screams as I fall
I used to believe him
But now I don't at all

He grasps my hand
As the dark clouds my sight
At least I'm now done with him
Done with my fright

But I do still love him
I hate to admit it
But I do love him so
Even as I get hit

Suddenly I'm looking down from above
Watching him with my body
He's actually crying
His hands are all bloody

I feel bad at first
But then remember what he did
I leave him alone
With my body and his unborn kid
