You watched me suffer
You watched me drown
The pain was endless
Even after I left town
My mind wasnt clear
My thoughts were nothing but fear
The things I did were because you were bendless
Unseen torture with searing heat
In my heart was nothing but defeat
No where to go
No where to hide
In my soul I wish I had died
The trials were endless
The pain seemed unending
After so long
I saw it bending
Back toward me
My life became free
Now I give it to Him
He was my only true friend
The lessons I learned
Because I was so burned
Are lessons I treasure
Beyond any measure
Thoughtful cautious and now very clean
I understand now what I was supposed to have seen
Many years ago I wish I had known
Thank God I know now befor my chance was blown
after 8 years of horrible abuse...i broke free.
