I watched the harrowing scene unfold
Out of the corner of my eye
I hadn’t meant to pry
But neither could I look away
Her face, grief-stricken, wincing
Her racing heart, sinking
His menacing eyes
Searched her pale face
His disparaging words, dashing hopes
Tying invisible ropes
Strangling her
She lost her composure
He remained indifferent
Continued to vent
As if her sighing tears
Were inaudible to his ears
His eyes darted towards me
A look of pure malice crossed his face
I shook my head and walked away
For such is the tragedy of life
I could only look from afar
A helping hand would be deemed an invasion
No amount of persuasion
Would make her see
His delusions of grandeur
Don’t let anyone EVER treat you less than you deserve.
P.s I heard this song called “Beautiful” by Mercy Me.
It goes like – “The days will come when you don’t have the strength
When all you hear is you’re not worth anything
Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart they’d see too much”
Amazing isn’t it?
