Sitting alone and on the floor
staring out the window
Just waiting to hear the door
She doesn't want to be hurt anymore...
Prays to God to protect her
asks him for his grace
please, someone stop him
before he puts another bruise on my face...
Her mind is racing as she hears his car
he is on his way back from the bar
angry about something he's been through
what would you do, if this was you...
Slams the door with all his frustration
comes stomping up the stairs
no one is there to save her
crys out but nobody cares...
Grabs her hair so roughly
and pulls her to the ground
kicks her so very hard
she can't hear a sound...
Screams to God to help her
send an angel to her side
cover her with his love
give her a place to hide...
What has she done to deserve this?
must have done something very wrong
he is hurting her so bad
it's getting hard to hang on...
Holds her tummy tightly
as she hits the floor
he's to drunk to remember
there's two she's fighting for...
Beats her till she black and blue
Where was God she thinks in her mind
she knows he's never very far
though right now he's hard to find...
Can barely move, soaked in blood
acheing from head to toe
Feeling so very sleepy
eyes close, as she begins to go...
Please dear Lord, save her life
even if mine is a sacrifice
please, dear God don't take her life
she's not even born, yet feels so much strife...
He's so angry and she doesnt know why
she's seeing heaven in her eyes
white light consumes her
as he leaves her where she lies...
Now she's Looking across a courtroom
staring at that man
who did nothing but hurt her
that, she never did understand...
My bruises will heal over time
now safe from all his harm
my baby girls in heaven
so far away from mommys arms...
Forgives him for what he has done
she knows that is God's will
feels so very sad that he will be living
the rest of his days in Hell...
Author notes
This was from a past abusive relationship I was in years ago now...
but back then I almost died...
I survived though my baby girl is in heaven now...
nothing more painful then being physically hurt
by the one you love
and living the rest of my life
knowing the man I loved
never loved me or our angel daughter...

So sad, so unfair that you should have had to experience this, dear. And reading your authors' notes, I almost started to cry... Shame about your daughter, and like you, I do hope that the asshole who caused you such pain will burn in Hell for the rest of eternity. I'm sure nothing can replace the hole in your heart that he left, when he took her away from you. Thank you for being strong enough to share this with me and the others, and best of luck in the contest.
Blessings,
L.

Wow.This was very touching and I am very glad God got you through,and you are a very strong woman and worthy of being admired because you let God help you survive. Wow.Sadly there is many more woman going through this and you were one of the few to be blessed enough to be granted the blessing of getting out of that relationship.I will definitely keep you in my prayers and do hope you nevr go through something like that again because nooone deserves that.Wow.Great Poem.! Simply great!

I am in tears. I have only admiration for someone who can survive such abuse, forgive the murder of their child, and make such touching poetry from it to share their journey so vividly. Absolutely gut-wrenching. God bless you.

this is sad. I am sorry for your loss, but glad you are alive to write about it. 'knowing the man I loved never loved me or our angel daughter...' my favorite line. what a way to end the poem.
