Coward:

I've been slapped…

Punched…

Kicked…

I've suffered…

Strangled…

Bled…

I know pain well…

I've embraced it…

I know the rules to hells game

I've played…

I've suffered feverishly, not daring to stand up against him.

They all tell me to leave you don't deserve atrocious beatings…

Yet I stay still bleeding…

They all tell me I'm coward for not leaving

Coward?

My greatest pain is staying alive- and I'm still breathing…

I am no coward, if the devil so wishes to asphyxiate my soul…

Then I'll remain behind my innocence and submit myself…

To it all
