Her own reflection sends chills up her spine,
She know she's stuck in these invisible binds
She is forced to call hers, this swine.
The customs and traditions
Were actually what drove them apart,
They were supposed to tie them together
Yet, they're the reasons for her bleeding heart.
The society and values were sadly
What forced her to bend and succumb, his cold eyes pushed her further
No, she wasn't dumb.
She still remembers the promises he made to her,
Those beautifully drafted dreams,
Yet, all he gave her
was unforgetable pain and misery.
The way she felt for him
The shy smile on her face,
Conveyed how his love used to complete her
Yet she lost everything in life's long race.
Her hand was given to him in faith.
Now the roughness of that same makes her soul cry,
She is the victim to all his crimes
Still to survive, she tries.
Soon, she hears him approach
Her heart races as fast as it can,
Her tears freeze and burn into her skin
Fear personified for her, is this man.
He walks to her and touches her cheek, his cold eyes send chills down her spine,
He apologises for the night before
she puts on a fake smile.
Her heart truely wishes it were true
Her brain knows it won't last
She knows this isn’t the first time,
The complexity in her heart is vast.
She loves her family too much to return she fears the society’s judgement, therefore she chooses to sacrifice herself
Instead of opening up, she forgets to vent.
Yes, this is a true story.
This one's for the people who think it's fine,
millions of women suffer everyday
They break down and give up due to this crime.
Till when will this society push down women's reactions
For it's time for us to rise,
Take a pledge to take actions
Domestic violence is a crime and these men must pay a price.
