Beating Gone Too Far

The words have been spoken.
My heart is broken.
The pain is more than I can endure.
We’re over now, I’m sure.
You left me in this man-made pit.
You ordered me to stay and sit.
I want to climb out, but I cannot.
I don’t know this place, who owns this lot?
I’m screaming, but no one can hear.
If he would’ve had just 1 less beer…
If I wouldn’t have gotten mad…
If I wouldn’t have told him he made me sad…
If he wouldn’t have gone to Joe’s Bar…
Maybe I’d be all right; I wouldn’t have to wish upon a star.
Hoping I wont die!
I can hear cars passing by.
I’ll keep screaming, maybe someone will come.
All I can think is how could I have been so dumb?
He had beaten me for a year. I never said a word.
I never realized these beatings were absurd.
I can’t go to sleep!
I don’t want to weep!
I think my life’s over, I’m getting weak.
To die in my sleep, is my first instinct.
“I love you kids!” is what I said.
As I layed down my arm under my head.
A few minutes later I was dead.
