A Woman's Value

A woman's heart even broken

Contains love in its pieces

In moments even threaten

Her man's pleasure still she wishes

 

Deceived yet chose not to awaken

 Suffering just kept to confinement

Battered yet still cannot be shaken

Pain will never be her comment

 

Stays even she has beaten and forsaken

Knows for certain she's not treated well

But her affection won't ever be lessen

Shattered but still couldn't say farewell

 

To his side is what she has chosen

Her love is what keeping her strong

Run to her man even she's forgotten

That's when love becomes wrong

A Womens Value

 

What a terrible relationship your poetry describes, to all those suffering such abusive relationships, it is time to move on.  How brave of you to tackle this subject: I think the violent abuser is just trying to lay blame in full against their victim, this type of relationship can't be true love only fear of reprissals.

Sad truth

I do know one or two having this situation, and it was really sickening when they are so close to you and don't have the right to make decisions for them to stop loving someone abusive. I guess no one can really stop loving someone even how painful it is for you and for that person.
