-TAKE A VOW- Say no to Domestic Violence!!

TAKE A VOW

Preach I like a preacher
From the scripture
To this beast called husband
Hitting her like a piece of trash
Pain am pained he spat
On her
Threw her
out of house

Shame be to you that hit
Your bone of your bone
After you post on the net
With a pose together
How beautiful your
Marriage appear

Take a vow
Stop this madness called
Domestic violence
Take a vow
Don't bow
Out now

One in four
They violated
Raped
Strangled
Shamed

I Zaggy
Take a vow
Against this animalistic
Cancer called
Domestic violence

The children watch in pain
Trauma they be
Life be shame shamed
They live with
Grow up hate marriage
Vow not to marry
Want to be a single
Parent parenting become
A challenge

Hear you say men also
Get violated
Hmm
How many times
Hear you it

Take a vow
Stand against it
Stop it
Speak against it

Hey
You there
And here
Speak out
Don't die in silence

Preach I my heart
Against this barbaric
Act
I bleed in my heart
As I write
I will fight
Take no delight
In this plight
Of disgrace

Take a vow
Don't cow
Not now

Hey
You there
Write against it
Pick up your pen
Fight it
Arrest it
Don't keep mute

Preach I like a preacher
Of whom I be
Am not afraid
I rep truth

Hey
You here on Facebook
Don't just like
And comment only
But rise to occasion
Take a vow
not a bow

Pray I that the world
Will wakeup from
This cancer in
Homes

Take a vow
Yes not a show
For your purse
Yes speak I to you
Of course you that
Claim to fight
Course of domestic violence

Take a vow
I mean now

Pray I that you read my heart
And understand my message

Show her true love
As you have professed
On that vow you took
At the altar

What Is Domestic Violence?

Domestic violence is violent or controlling behavior between two people that are dating or living together, married, separated, or divorced. Domestic violence is also referred to as battering or partner violence. The abuse can be physical, emotional, and/or sexual, and may occur occasionally or often.

Over time, domestic violence usually occurs more frequently and worsens. It often follows a three-stage cycle:

Stage 1—Tension builds. The abuser may criticize and threaten the victim.
Stage 2— The abuser becomes physically violent and/or emotionally abusive.
Stage 3— The abuser apologizes, promises to change, and may seem very loving. Although the apologies and apparent acts of love may offer hope that things will change, the cycle of violence almost always starts again. It does not end until the abuser seeks help and makes a concerted effort to change or the victim leaves.

Who Is Affected?

Domestic violence cuts across all ages and all economic, educational, cultural, and religious backgrounds. Most of the victims are women abused by men however children are also at risk of exposure to domestic violence.

What Kinds of Help Are Available

If you or someone you know is being abused, seek help. Talk with someone you trust, such as a close friend or relative or your doctor. Consider calling a domestic violence hotline and talking with a counselor. Remember, domestic violence is not your fault, and no one ever has the right to abuse another person. You have a right to be safe!
