She Can't Hate Him

Another dark night has come
She stayed under her bed
Crying to herself
She hugs her mother picture
Tightly as possible
The clock strike midnight
And the hall clock rang
The door slam open
And he came in shouting
Drunk in his world
Grumbling and cursing
Again she was the victim to this crime
Bruises covered her body
She stood at his bed
As he lay on his bed soundly asleep
Looking down at him
With her devil eyes
The knight that she was gone
She held up the knife 
Ready to strike down 
Into his heart
Ready to his eyes in pain
Ready to hear his scream
Ready to see the blood flow from him
And laugh in please
But my hands shake
Not in fear…
But love…
She can’t bring herself to kill him
She can’t hate him
For he is her knight in the shining armor
For he is her beloved father…
