I remember it clearly, the day he lost his life
He was only 14 he stood in front of me that night
The gun was pointed at me, The screaming and the shouts
He was trying to protect me, get me out
You see he was my babby boy, who was fighting for what he had
The person he tried to save me from, was a monster he called dad
The violence went on for years, he had seen it all
he would hide in the cupboards, locked behind a door
He told me once he couldn t let it go on
when he grew up and he became stronger
mum he said " Iknow when i become a man"
I will stop this violence on you, I hope you understand
I saw the pain in his eyes everytime his dad was there
He hated him so much, He never ever cared
The night started as usual the screaming and the fights
that little boy was so scared, he ran away to hide
I remember the gun pointed , I tried to flee
My little boy turned in to a man to tried and save me
The shot ran out my boy fell, straight to the floor,
the blood my voice screaming thats all that i recall
Please help him some one, i cant let him go
All that i remember where the tears begun to flow
My baby boy gone forever, a hole in my heart
One monster destroyed him, tore my world apart

Wow, I am so sorry that this happened. I know my boys used to get between their Dad and me. I could feel all your pain and sadness. Your son saved your life and gave his own. If you ever need to talk I am here
Excellent write and flow
