Tough Love?

When he hit me that first time,
I knew I should have run,
Get out,
Get away,
But I loved him,
I knew he couldn't cook meals for himself,
So I stayed,
Because I loved him.

Sunglasses covered my eyes,
Covered my fear,
My bruises,
My terror,
At going home,
To him,
My husband.

Till death do us part...
