This work focus in a major social problem; Violence againts women, throughout mankind history the consecuences and practice of this type of violence has become naturalized and culturally rooted.

Nebulae looms between the pleasure of going slowly dissecting the female spirit and creating an extreme level of dependency. This actions and reaccions becomes a daily task that requires a subtle and loving sadistic treatment where the devaluation, the threat and submission are the main ingredients.

The constant criticism destroyes the self-esteem of a strong woman, transforming it into a human wreck who ended up thanking "her man" generosity of love despite all its imperfections. Little by little, dies slow and silently without being aware of the devastating effects of this unhealthy and misleading conception of love.

In "Do not leave me", the starting point is the song of Jacques Brel, "Ne me quitte pas", famous as one of the most romantic songs of all times. This song ironically installed lets us see how the collective conception of love should be inexorably linked to suffering, anguish and blind delivery in which anything goes.

Many women prefer to hide the attacks received by her assailant. Fears of abandonment and wounding eppisodes becames so necessary in her life like a kind of drug.

Violence againts women does not distinguish strata, races, and religions. Every day, millions of women comes from emotional and psychological life, thus being murdered by their perpetrators.

Misogyny; is a murderer and unfortunately silent "while no body, no crime"
