Poetry
You said you would never hurt me;
I guess you have forgot
The night that I was left alone,
My life was tied in knots
I can't get away from the blame
It's the wound that won't heal
I can not remember it all
Just the way I still feel
Every night I still try to sleep
No innocence; defiled
No memories; It haunts and taunts
Grown up now, still a child
Blaming myself for what you did
Hopelessly craving more
Climbed in to my own self pity,
Took the key; locked the door
You said you would never hurt me
Jesus will keep that truth
Living in His comfort and love
Taking my sins of youth
He asked for my pain and my all,
My choice; to Him I give
Accepted His grace and mercy,
He loves and He forgives
So if I hurt from what you did
Then it is my fault too
Cause Jesus loves and forgives me
That is what I do too
