Beware Of The Looser
He came riding on his horse
He was so strong
You were so weak
You was looking at a looser
But seeing a hero
His words would shut your mouth
You had to listen in
His hands were big and strong
But held you gently
Oh how you wanted to lay in his arms
He got you moving in
Because you wanted to live with him
You loved him
And didn’t mind cleaning the house
Fixing his food
Bringing the paycheck home too
He could not find a job
He was depressed
You understood
One day you had to work late
He stood at the door
And you knew
You worked too late
He saw how the boss looked at you
As you tried to explain
He hit you with pain
The bills were late
You had to do overtime
He wasn’t good enough
As your nose broke
I loved you
As you crashed into the kitchen table
Oh my sweet daughters
Dreams of security can break your heart
And break your face
Be yourself
See people the way they really are
And you won’t be fooled by anyone

I wrote this in Antarctica. We have to see each other eye to eye. When you look up to others, you’re going to get hurt, not seeing them for what they really are and when you look down on others, you will be the one hurting others.
Women everywhere once used to look for their prince, expecting nothing less and so often only finding abuse. I have seen men abuse women and it always baffled me as to why women are attracted to this type of man as if it was her duty to be his foot stool. They would have nothing to do with a kind and gentle, caring man, seeing this as weakness. But anyways, that’s why I wrote this.
