ending the pain

by Ashley - Not entered

you grasp my wrist
and command me to stay
pain shoots through my arm
and all your gentleness is lost
trapped in emotions 
i do not want to feel
feeling meek, thinking love
i couldn't walk away if you let go
tears streaming down my face
emptiness that i can't take
wanting you more than anything
wishing you could change
knowing you won't
escapign your grip
running away
i cry myself to sleep
and dread tomorrow's apology

Reason for writing:

    i was just thinking about all the abusive realtionships out there
