I wish you didn't hate me.
I wish I could see you face to face,
Tell you how much I cared.
Emotions ran high.
Things were thrown,
Accusations,
Punches.
I never thought you would hit me.
But there we were.
Blood,
Broken noses,
Broken promises.
You caused these tears,
Made me cry.
Held the knife to my throat,
Threatened if you couldn't have me,
No one could.
Threw me against the neatly-made bed.
You had just made the bed for the first time.
Now it's covered in our blood.
It will have to be washed again,
And you'll never make it again.
You covered my mouth,
Told me to be quiet.
Tears were in your eyes.
Everything stopped.
Your muscles relaxed,
I could feel the tension start to drain out.
"I love you"
Was all you could say.
I closed my eyes,
Wondered if it was worth it.
I pulled you closer to my face,
Kissed your lips softly.
"I love you too"
The only words spoken the rest of the day.
You pulled me off the bed,
Took the sheets to the laundry room,
And You did the laundry.
You remade the bed.
You told me you loved me.
You made the decisions for me.
You held me all day.
You're the only one I love,
But is it worth all my pain?

For your sake, I sincerely hope this is a metaphor.
