Why She Stays’
Sting of a slap without reform A fist closed tight clenching rage Her flesh weathers yet another storm Years are not kind from the batterings They tale their toll Bruises on skin Bruises on soul
Contorted reasons on each apology Her heart will again relent It’s not love alone that dulls her mind But the censure of weak consent
Be not her judge for what she stays There are no rules she’s broken If guilt be any it lays in hiding Domestic Violence
"Fell" upon your blog and the title caught my eye. For a minute I was (worried) that those were new lyrics to a Rhianna song. I have to say, I love that we are not judging so harshly, and are at least attempting to understand that choices an abuser makes don't often "make sense" outside of their head -- doesn't mean they enjoy it, doesn't mean they want to stay. Just means that staying is all they (their soul, their brain, their spirit) can know to do.
The mind is so complex... thanks for the poetry moment during an otherwise drab Tuesday! www.SoulPurposeGlobal.com
I listened to your whole presentation--love your" corporate voice "as well I recommend this to anyone.
