Because I love you, he says as he makes me cut class

Because I love you, he says as he isloates me from friends

Because I love you, he says as he breaks my phone

Because I love you, he says as he pushes me against a wall

Because I love you, he says as he strokes my black eye

Because I love you, he says as he rapes me

Because I love you, he says as he waves around the knife

Because I love you, he says as he stabs us both

Because I love him I don't notice how much it hurt

Because I love him I don't tell anyone

Because I love him I lie on my floor bleeding

Because I love him I let myself fade out

Because I love him I whisper my goodbyes

Because I love him I stop loving me

Because I love you, she says as she takes my hand

Because I love you, she says as the sirens wail

Because I love you, she says as she smiles in the hospital 

Because I love you, she says as she holds me while I cry

Because I love you, she says as she takes the gun from my hand

Because I love you, she says as we lay close at night 

Because I love you, she says when I ask why she's stayed

Because I love you, she whispers at our wedding
