Loves Abuse
I was graciously pursued by his charm
Furthest from my mind was any harm
I thought that I had met my one true love
A perfect fit my hand and his glove
I can recall the day my life forever changed
My world had become utterly deranged
With commands, orders, and strict demands
That day my face met with his hands
I had been arrested without cause or reason
And was suddenly thrown into loves mental prison
His fury began to rage like the ocean tides
The tears from my pain were forced to hide
My silent screams were seldom heard
I was forbidden to speak or say a word
Unable to make the simplest choice
Because I had no say, I had no voice
My midnights became my refuge and peace
Where my soul was comforted and pain released
I called on my Savior to help me cope
To give strength, direction, and hope
My Lord was there to lend a hand
And free me from loves twisted band
Now there’s joy where there once was pain
Through my Lord Jesus will my joy remain
