Do You Love Me

Do you love me?
You say you do.
Yet I feel only the wrath of your "punishing".
I don't understand!
What did I do?!
Why am I being hurt?
I do my best to be good.
Your "hits" continue well after you are done.
I can't make it stop
The nightmares
The anger building
My self esteem shrinking.
Until, I myself, become enraged.
My only reaction...
Fight or flight...
