Faceless Woman

Your charm and your looks is what got me at first
It seemed that you knew all the right things to say
You made me feel like I was in ecstasy every time I just simply heard your voice
Pretty soon after all the magic and persuasion wore thin, the real show began and the curtains were dropped
You had me wrapped around your little finger and I followed you around like a child that was lost
I felt incomplete when I was not around you and pretty soon my existence started to fade away
The person I was before you came into my life started disappearing
I never noticed it, but the people outside enjoying your "show" tried to tell me
Their concern for me made me angry and pretty soon I alienated myself from everything around me
I never knew what true loneliness felt like but after experiencing your presence I felt as if the word were created just for me
Your mission was being completed one day at a time
My life felt so empty and happiness was a word that did not exist anymore
Every day I try to regain my dignity and innocence but that is a fight that I feel that I am losing
And I pray to God that you do not win
As time passed your strength over me became stronger
The bruises fade but the emotional scars will remain forever
Am I good person? Is it my fault? Why do you treat me like this? What did I do?
These were questions that resonated through my mind on a daily basis and my rationalization for your behavior became constant
"Oh it's my fault." "I make him act like this because I treat him so badly." "I stress him out so much I'm lucky that he still wants to be with me."
You are a murderer and not of physical form
You are a murderer of my soul and spirit
They have died in combat but I pray that they will return to me one day to fill the void that you have left behind
You may think that I am the weak one
But the truth is you are
You are a coward and had to put someone else down to make yourself feel better
You came into my world of light and brought nothing but darkness so I can lose my way
But now I can see again
And since there is light I can see who you really are
