Troubles have just Begun

BANG! BANG! BANG!
The gunshots sound
Is he really dead? Is this nightmare finally over?

The perfect gentleman
Tuxedo wrapped, well groomed, well mannered, educated.
The list goes on and on
Simply perfect in every way.
The PICTURE was perfection!!
But, the person was a MONSTER

Where is my supper?
SLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From that I can recover.
Why aren't my clothes ironed?
A boxer's jab to my nose!!!!
Again I can recover.
Why is this child in my chair?
She is flung into a wall,
My baby's anguished cries
She is only two years old.
Now this I will not stand for
This I will not take, from this I cannot recover
She is yours as she is mine.

NO!
You will not treat her this way
And as he turned to make her hush
My anger completely took hold.
The shotgun I was threatened with
I then numbly took hold
BANG!
The first shot was fired
He turned.........
Woman what the hell.........?
It missed him clean,
His wrath now turned on me.
He charged with such ferocity
An absolute raging bull.
BANG!
I shot again.
It got him in the head
BANG!
I shot again.
It's over I breathed!!!!!!
But then the sirens sound.............
It far from over, it's only just begun!!!!!!!
