Love and Abuse

by

I saw two faithful lovers

walking hand in hand,
One was fat and ugly,

the other tall and grand.
I asked them both their names,
And this is what they said -
"I am Abuse" and "I am Love"

and "We've just got out of bed!"

I couldn't figure out these names,

I thought I heard them lie.
I followed them and from behind

they seemed a little shy.
I called again "What names have you?"

and this is what they said -
"I am Abuse" and "I am Love",

then they showed me wounds that bled.

It always comes as a great surprise

to watch these lovers woo.
In early days they seem complete

like lovers through and through.
Take a closer look and climb inside

each of these lovers' heads,
See "I am Abuse" and "I am Love"

embroidered in faded thread.
