As much as she pushes him away,
He just won't get it.
Can't he see
how desperate she is?

She can't take much more of this:
He doesn't seem to care.
He's having his fun
forcing her to the gun

She doesn't know
what else she can do.
He just won't leave;
She's begging him please

Someone help her.
Shove him back.
She can't do it alone,
her efforts falling slack

Listen to the wind
Look through holes in the screen
she's there looking in
trying to hear her own screams

She swears it will be over soon,
Her pain will ebb away.
But are her words true?
Or will he continue to play?
Feedback would be appreciated.
