It’s the Quiet Ones in the End…… She swept up the glass with teary eyes Tried hard to muffle her sobbing cries She’d done something to anger him so What difference did it make if she didn’t know? She heard him stagger to the bed So quietly she sat and read Then jumped quickly as he came Angry that he’d called her name His words like thunder to her ears Giving in to all her fears Sometimes she wished he would just hit Then it would be over, that would be it His words cut deeper than any blow And she never knew what would cause it so She lived her life as a timid mouse Afraid to step foot outside the house But that didn’t do, it was never enough He’d warn her it’s time for her to get tough Until finally she heard the words he said Pulled back the trigger and shot him dead. ------------------ Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind... |

a woman scorned indeed...lovely to read the revenge  ------------------ i never call a poem "nice" or such, for that would not be saying much |
