Broken Minds

with spoken words and views from experience, you would feel that men are 
worthless,
call'n you names saying things s absurd to tear away at heart and flesh.

Leaving you beaten and bruised to a point where you feel nothing.
The word love no longer exists in thy state of mind except flashbacks of punches 
hurting.

the circulation of death and shame burning and driving your mind crazy,
causing one to feel that they need love and could change him or do what ever he 
wants to keep him from going crazy.

But that's not the case, women need to realize that some men will try and control 
you and abuse everything your pursuing to stand for,
taking advantage of you, hurting you physically and stripping away your 
knowledge of love from the inner core.

Now your family hates to hear about and see you because you didn't listen to 
them the first time,
Didn't even come and see you when you were in the hospital because he injured 
your spine.

Why must you go through that,
Should have quit when he first showed times of abuse,especially when he 
threatened you with his aluminum bat.

Not all men are wild and untamed,
It takes time to seek a man with respect and actual love for you, your mind, 
thoughts, and frame.

We all have to be alert from the actions of conniving men who man manipulate 
and abuse,
Look for someone who could exchange love, trust, and commitment instead of a 
bruise.
