Rhyme Scheme: ABCDE FGHE IJKLMN OIOPNQE RSIITUE

Fear reeling from my mindA
As i watched his anger elevatedB
By just a sound of my voiceC
Then i knew i had to make a moveD
Iam a woman and i apologizeE
-
He blocked my wayF
He blew the first punch to my defenseless selfG
He blew the second punchH
Iam a woman and i apologizeE
-
I screamed my lungs out like never beforeI
I screamed for help like a goat being slaughteredJ
I could hear my voice reaching far placesK
No one came to my rescuesL
No one caredM
Nevertheless iam a woman and iam sorryN
-
I screamed until i gave in to the thought of deathO
I sacrificed myself because i could not scream anymoreI
In my mind i welcomed the thoughts of deathO
I saw my own funeralP
I could see my family weep in agonyN
I could see my family falling apartQ
Still iam a woman and i apologizeE
-
All because of a manR
Not just a man but the one i lovedS
The one i cared forI
The one i made a vow to die forI
Was literally my killerT
What have i done as a womanU
Forgive me i apologizeE
