His Fault, Her Punishment


Meeting him for the first time was great until he opened his mouth

Protecting your ears from the words he said

The relationship she witnessed started to go south

Why didn't you pick the other guy instead

 

Her mom is looking but can't seem to hear

Her daughter is speaking but no sounds comes out

All she needed him to do was disappear

Her daughter packed her bags and walkout

 

He controlled every move she made

Her daughter was fighting alone

Taking over her house was part of his charade

She had put her daughter in a war zone

 

Was that apart of her journey?
