You make me smile-you make me complete

Your touch,so soft-your words so sweet.

You kiss with such Love-I feel it’s grown

But I’m not Myself...when I’m alone.

I’m scared and sad-and stare out the glass

In hope that bad memories-will very soon pass.

But they still remain-as I close my eyes

And pray to God-that the Past soon dies.

A Child abused-grown to heal

But a Man took control-with my Life,as his Steal.

His grip on me-made me feel as a Child

So helpless,so small-with his Mind,so wild.

The threats,the pain-the chaos of Life

He smiled with pleasure-at his pathetic wife.

A wife,a mother-no job to survive

Watching me crawl-was his life-long thrive.

I got away-we’ve survived today

But he is still there-with more games to play.

Out of State-is not out of mind

My whereabouts are never-too secret to find.

Hes always there-when I close my eyes

He wishes to hear-my painful cries.

Why dont he- just GET A LIFE

And leave MINE alone-I’m NOT his wife!!

But in his head-we were meant to be

And hes only happy-when he thinks he has me.

The games,the harrassment,his ugly plots

He’ll never stop-until my body rots.

But he’s so sly-such a sick Coward

He thinks he’ll always- have me,overpowered.

My kids are healthy-no thanks to him

They have found the Happiness-that he turned dim.

We smile,we play-we hold on tight

I will protect these things-with all my might.

My husband,now-has shown me Life

I ‘m proud to say-that I’m his Wife.

But the Past still haunts-and chills the bone

I’m not myself-when I’m alone.
