Snapped A Woman Scorned Poem by Craig Mize

As the sweat, blood, and tears dropped from her face;
Forming into a puddle that is building beneath her feet.
She can not believe that she did it. But she had to or did she?
She knew that she loved him and that he loved her,
But love should not hurt, it shouldn't make you bleed.
Love should not come home drunk and black your eyes.
As she reminisce about the pain she remember the love.
She remember how he was when they first met,
How loving and caring he was on their first date.
He was her knight in shining armor on their wedding day,
But that was also the beginning of the nightmare.
Fat, dumb, stupid, ugly, lazy, repeated in her ear;
Pushed, slapped, kicked, punched everyday of the year.
But she pledge to love him, vowed to remain by his side!
She stuck with him every time that he cheated,
Every time he hit her, every time he lied, every time he didn't care.
But all he did was hit, all he did was cheat, all he did was wrong.
Blood, sweat, tears eleven years worth of hurt,
Blood, sweat, tears eleven years worth of pain.
Although she loved him, it was hell that he put her through.
As her body shakes and fingers clinches together,
She pulls the trigger and in his body goes one more shot.
The gun drops as a monsoon of tears fall from her eyes.
The beating was not going to stop, the abuse went on for to long
Until she snapped and became a woman scorned.
