The Boyfriend

I once met a silly little boy
Who happened to steal my heart.
He’d always said that I was his
‘Til death do we part.

It started off so blissfully
Meeting morning, noon, and night
Until one day, we argued
And he gave me quite a fright

He told me I was a whore
And how stupid I had been
After I cried, I said it was sorry
And I’d never do it again

I didn’t know what I did
But I tried not to repeat it
Because I hated seeing him so mad
I despised seeing him so heated.

I’m sad to say I stayed with him
And I loved him with all my heart
But who knew he’d take control of me
And tear my life apart

He banned me from socializing
Especially with the boys
He controlled everything that I did
And referred to me as his “toy”

The first time I tried to break up
He didn’t like it whatsoever
He told me that our love
Was meant to last forever

After awhile he started to hit me
For no reason at all
One day he kicked me down the stairs
When I didn’t return his call.

I was getting scared
And had more bruises than skin
It was a battle for my life
And I was going to win

He was always bullying me
Especially in front of his friends
I wanted out so badly
I wanted it to end!

The second time I tried to break up
He slapped me across the face
He said I was his girlfriend
And I’d better learn my place.

I thought we were done
When he said he’d set me free
What I thought he meant was wrong
Because tonight he murdered me

I once meant a silly little boy
Who happened to steal my heart
He always said that I was his
‘Til death do we part.
