Dear Hennessy       Dear Hennessy, 
Why must you come between my relationship 
Why must you poison the mind  of the man I love? 
Becoming a monster when he is drunk 
Trepidation engulfs me when I see those blood strain eyes looking back at me 
Preparing myself for this verbal beaten when I hear anger in his speech 
Tears rolling down my face 
A cry for him to see I am not his enemy 
Saying a silent prayer, 
"God please help me to only see the good in this man. 
Please reveal to him, my heart is in his hands." 
  
Trying not to let this pain turn into hate 
Telling myself,  "You need to have faith. 
For tomorrow will bring the man you love." 
How can I forget those words lingering in my mind? 
Scattering my heart every time 
Fighting to hold on to  my love 
my passion 
my admiration 
for the man who lives within me 
but I only feel disgust
