All I know

by lachrymose-and-lies

I've grown accustomed to his hand on my throat The wool pierced in my eyes His voice gravelly and cold I've grown accustomed to his rough hands tugging my heart Telling me I'm not to leave Never to leave him I've grown accustomed to his demands The order of his desires His lips forced to mine I've grown accustomed to his harsh stare asking me to love him His words all lies Backed up by an aggressive demeanor I've grown accustomed to hardship Of a toxic love If you could call it love It's all I know
