Freedom
by Tonya Smith (Age: 35)
copyright 01-21-2003


Age Rating: 18 to 127

 
As I watch the moonlight dance across the water,
breathing in the salty air,
I close my eyes and wish a little harder,
Please let me escape this nightmare.

His blows only seem stronger,
As time passes me by,
The nights get longer and longer,
With the morning light, I cry.

Some women say to leave him,
But his hold I cannot break.
My chances of escaping are slim,
His life I must take.

I watch him as he sleeps,
And remember the good times we had,
For those are the memories I wish to keep.
For some of our days were not bad.

The dim street lights reflect off the blade.
Once in the heart and he will be gone.
All of a sudden my courage fades,
Is prison where I belong?

I press the cold steel against my skin,
A crimson river flows from me.
Tonight peace for me will begin,
tonight my soul flies free.

Tonya,
Just read your poem and I must say the imagery is very strong. It is well written and I liked the surprise ending also.

I very mush like the twist. I appreciate being led down a path, thinking that I know where I am going, only to find when I get to the end, that I am not where I expected to be.

Powerful
I'm happy to hear it isn't you.
Just thinking about all the people who personally relate to this thought is so sad.
Great writting Tonya

Just to let everybody know, this is from imagination. I have heard so many abusive stories and I hope that know woman or man would ever kill themselves because of their spouse. But it happens in the real world. I thank God every day that I have a wonderful husband.
