Badly beaten she stands strong. <br />Though her speech falters, confidence rings in every word. <br /> <br />'Never again will you do this to me'. She vows. <br /> <br />She stands in front of the man. <br />Just a stranger to her now. <br /> <br />Waiting. <br />Waiting for the next blow. <br /> <br />He strikes her violently, across the face. <br />She falls to her knees, battered but not broken. <br /> <br />He yells and screams. <br />Only blaming her for what he has done. <br /> <br />Refusing to submit. <br />She fights back. <br /> <br />Her briused body only manages a pitiful punch. <br />Unable to defend herself, he finishes her off with one final blow. <br /> <br />She falls and will never rise again. <br /> <br />But forever insolent <br />Her spirit remains with him. <br /> <br />Forever haunting the man she thought she knew. <br />'To death do we part'.They once vowed.<br /><br />Alexander Hale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/forever-134/
