My Freedom
He hit me 
 Pushed me 
 Slapped me too
 So someone tell me what the heck was I to do 
 Sit here and take it 
 Wait for it again back up into a corner where he strikes me with his hand 
 Hurt me 
 Bruise me 
 Won’t take that again 
 Stand up stupid wont say a word he hits me I fall where he says I belong 
 Commanding as a puppeteer he yanks me back up and holds me in his arms makes me feel the trust until another day when I make him mad again you should see his  face so angry as if I’m a disgrace or maybe I am  I was so young and confused had no time to really get to choose .
 Waking up to his smiling face 
 Hoping everything will be okay 
 Until later his true colors will show thinking he rules like a king on his throne 
 Knowing his boss brings tear to my face and erupts all my thoughts 
 He’ll ask what’s wrong and say it so sweet 
 But the things that he’s done will finally push me Sounds of remoras seem to shield my voice I push it away its time for my joy I stand up now but no where near proud maybe gone mad he looks at me in disgust shows no fear then a crack in his voice says I love you dear   
 Love is that what you call what you’ve done to me brought me down to a level I never wanted to be 
 Real mad and angry I go to hit him  as he would have me and give him the pain that would last for centuries but in stead I stand up and walk away the man the that once hit me got up and scurried away
