Will I Have The Courage Tomorrow? A Poem in Women's Eyes
Seems like it was yesterday
when I made that choice
of joining my life
to a partner with so much rejoice
been actually too long
to remember
things that i did on that
night of November
I married the man of my life
that's what mom told me
I gave my life to him
in yearly or monthly installments
but lately love has been dying
from time to time
my life has past me flying
night after night
day after day...
our only daughter is old enough
to stop any crying
she was actually the reason for me to stay quiet
and kept myself from leaving
This insane way of living
I wonder where went that sex appealing
have to confess that he abused me all along
either with words or tight fists
my love for him is actually gone, how wrong!
my respect for him took a flight
honestly I'd rather be alone
I always think of tomorrow
but without time I cry in my own sorrow
I think I will have to say....(deep breath)
I don't need to stay
with him like this anymore
I have learned to love myself
to tell him this is it!!!
I redeemed myself from our ill fated past
and also, want so bad to let it out
leave me the chuck alone! (louder)
what about this and that?
what the hell, no more WAITING doormat
anymore.
tomorrow will be the day
that I will end this pain
tomorrow will be the day
that I will tell him
won't ever wanna see you again!
tomorrow will be the day that I will break those chains
waiting for my daughter to grow was not in vain
tomorrow will cut my ties
free from him and ready to love myself again!
If you need help and a shelter call now!
