Dangerous unconditional love

She admired the way you looked
so big and powerful
but when you raised your hand
to a woman you became so pitiful
to think that you could keep her
in line with a slap
now the only time she admires you
is when you nap
so peaceful and temper-less
the only time she can be
so joyful and tearless
her eyes cry because of your
verbal and physical abuse
but her heart screams
as every time her conscious
tells her to leave you
her heart will always refuse
