Exclamation A poem that really hit home for me..........

Got Flowers Today.
It Wasn't My Birthday Or Any Other Special Day. We Had Our First Argument Last
Night, And He Said A Lot Of Cruel Things That Really Hurt Me. I Know He Is
Sorry And Didn't Mean The Things He Said. Because He Sent Me Flowers Today.

I Got Flowers Today. It Wasn't Our Anniversary Or Any Other Special Day. Last
Night, He Threw Me Into A Wall And Started To Choke Me. It Seemed Like A
Nightmare. I Couldn't Believe It Was Real. I Woke Up This Morning Sore And
Bruised All Over. I Know He Must Be Sorry. Because He Sent Me Flowers Today.

I Got Flowers Today. It Wasn't Mother's Day Or Any Other Special Day. Last
Night, He Beat Meup Again, And It Was Much Worse Than Al The Other Times. If I
Leave Him, What Will I Do? How Will I Take Care Of My Kids? What About Money?
I'm Afraid Of Him And Scared To Leave. But I Know He Must Be Sorry. Because He
Sent Me Flowers Today.

I Got Flowers Today. Today Was A Very Special Day. It Was The Day Of My
Funeral. Last Night He Finally Killed Me. He Beat Me To Death. If Only I Had
Gathered Enough Courage And Strength To Leave Him. I Would Not Have Gotten
Flowers Today.............................................
