 Welcome to Trizia's thoughts

In Sickness & in Health


In sickness and health you did promise
forever as long as we live
this isn't how it worked out though
not after all that you did.

My fault you said, it was my fault
every time something went wrong
a fist through the door was your answer
you got worse as we went along.

You added deceit to your actions
but told me my mind was insane
until came the time you were caught in the act
but still it wasn't you that was to blame.

Slowly you sent my mind crazy
I'd taken as much as I could
me being ill was a pain in your side
I begged you but it was no good.

The young girls, they came and they told me
what you did again and again
but you didn't hear, they were liars
again you was no way to blame.

The day came my mind didn't work anymore
the tauntings and deceit, they had won
I wanted to die, couldn't take anymore
the damage so bad it was done.

It annoyed him so much if I showed my pain
he said just be quiet OK
my life was over I could trust no more
he wanted to live his life his way.

I gathered my strength as much as I could
show them your scars then, he smirked
all of my scars were deep in my mind
I so wanted this marriage to work.

Get out I said, get out of my life
but no, he said you are mine
to hurt me he tried to take his life
a final punishment to me this time.

I carried on with my children then
in a peace we had never known
the trauma then was in past dark years
past memories though, chill to my bones.
