I Still Love You

First it starts off small,
With having him hang up,
Then it builds up to screaming and crying
Over the phone when he calls back.
You wait few days to go see him.
You're both sitting there,
Thinking what's going to happen.
You decide to break the silence.
In an instant you find yourself,
Slammed into the wall.
Your breathing gets low.
His hands in a fist.
Your eyes meet as tears,
Roll down your cheeks.
Blood dripping down your nose,
From where his ten pound hand,
Slapped you across your face.
You look down at the puddle of tears,
You think why should choosing
Be so hard.
My heart is saying I want you,
But my head is saying,
How could you do this to me!
You look back into his baby blue eyes,
And softly say, "I still love you."
