"She"

She was put in a place that was far from the world. He put her in his world, and now she was his girl. Her opinion was lost and so was her spine. He controlled her every move, all of the time. What was hers was now his, she began to wonder why she lived. The anger in his eyes when he didn't get his way, became the enemy she had to avoid everyday. She was trapped in a place that had no key, and she loved him so passionately. But what she loved was the idea of love, that didn't exist it was all made up. The black eyes and all the make up, was never enough reality for her to wake up. So she carried on in her misery, and faked her words and delivery. She grew accustomed to the pain he dealt, along with the bruises and the pain she felt. Who would ever save her from this shame? No hero, no Superman, she was no Lois Lane. Again and again she prayed to the one above, that she would one day find true love. And one day she found it in her own heart, and tore out the pain that tore her apart. She stood for the last hit she could take, and when it came she did not break. She fought and fought till she had no more. And when she was done, she took one last look at her love on the floor, and finally realized she had won the war.
