He had lied, deceived, and cheated,
used mind games to make her stay;
She'd slowly died, deep down inside,
yet she could not get away.
~
He played the "Blame Game" often,
yet he never took the fall;
He claimed she was the problem,
everything was all her fault.
~
So she tried her best each morning,
to hide the tears that she shed;
They were room mates in their home,
and strangers in their own bed.
~
He no longer loved this woman,
and she did not love him back;
She saw no sense in staying,
so she slowly began to pack.
~
No trust or communication,
excisted anymore;
She wondered if she left him,
would he hear her shut the door?
~
Yet she was much too weak,
to go out on her own;
She lacked the strength, that it would take,
to leave her unhappy home.
