My one and only
He use to make me feel like
Im the only one, his number one
And then it begun
He got up in my face
Such a disgrace
Making me feel for my love
He will kill
I was dying inside
Asking the lord why?
Why did this man choose to degrade
And mistreat me
I loved him wholeheartedly
Oh how i love thee
But all he ever did was lie and
Cheat on me
I wish i was blind
Because i really couldn’t see
But not literally
Atleast i would have an excuse for all the abuse
And telling myself this man dont care for you
Looking at myself from within
These were the days my troubles began
I felt like i stepped into a world of No mans land
Because all this man wanted to do was raise his hands
I just didn’t understand
You told me you loved me
And said you were my man
One of my biggest fans
You tore me down
Just because you thought u can
Your heart was black, it was all an act
Sealed with a kiss
How would i have known
I would meet your fist
Was i bamboozled?
No i was just tricked
This wasnt love, this was an
abusers blitz
This was for real, some real bad shit
Now i know how to let go
PAIN NOMORE!
Will i ever adore
Loving myself less and someone else more
I talk that talk and walk that walk
Allowing any abuse
I realize that was all my fault
Oh how i love thee
I’m more than a woman, its all in me
I was once blind
Now i can see
Being held captive, emotional and physically and all that misery
GUESS WHAT!
My world of pain no longer hinders me

This is beautiful. I was in an abusive relationship for two and a half years, and this really resounded. Thank you!
