She And He Poem by Elizabeth Rabbit

She And He

Rating: 5.0


This poem is about a country girl, naive and unloved.
She moved out from her village home, thought she was old enough to go alone.
She got into the wrong crowd, then she feel in love.
He promised her the moon; but once her innocence was gone he quickly changed his tune.
Lies and black eyes, she knew she shoulda said her goodbyes;
Things just went from bad to worse, she couldn't get out without getting hurt.
Then he went to prison,
Her friends told her now was her chance, that she should run, but she wouldn't listen.
This poem is about a country girl, she once had a heart of gold, but now it had grown cold.
She hated him, yet she still waited for him.
He was the only person who had shown her love, even if it was often acompained by a slap and a shove.
The night he came out, he didn't try to find her, too busy with his mates drinking liqueur.
Night time fell before he walked through the door, shouting at her saying she was a whole; calling her a tart, didn't care about her tears or her breaking heart.
No happy reunion like she's prayed for, just a bully of a man that she saw.
This poem is about a country girl, her life just a tragic whirl.
It was his own fault, he underestimated the furry of a broken girl,
Came in shouting, throwing his weight around;
normally that woulda scared her,
she didn't know why but that night her fear deserted her,
he went to hit her, she had to stop him before it all started to reoccur,
she grabbed the first thing she saw, just as he punched her square in the jaw,
she hit him with the metal straw, heard him swear as he fell to the floor;
she ran out into the night, but then he caught her and the last thing she saw was the bright light.
