[hometext] => This is one of my first works. This poem deals with a woman who is in an abusive relationship and the speaker is imploring her to walk away from the man she's with.
[bodytext] => "Captive" by Nick J Today he cursed you out and then walked out However you called him "your man" and follow him He left you with the kids whom he said he regretted having And you cooked him dinner that same night He didnt buy you anything for your birthday But you did for his He broke your arm over a month ago Instead of breaking his, you remain stuck to it You have given him all the tenderness a wife is to give Yet he has given you nothing in return but scars physically and emotionally You said your were leaving him 5 times And 5 times you didn't move a muscle He cheated on you several times and continues to do it But you still say you love him The truth is that he doesnt even remotely love you But maybe the black eyes he gives you prevents you from seeing that You're held a captive to man who beats you instead of protecting you You're held a captive in your world of love; stay there, if you want. -Blackwings [comments] => 0 [counter] => 98 [topic] => 13 [informant] => blackwings [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 2 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
