[hometext] => A time in life i do not miss, and prayers were never answered
[bodytext] => I layed in bed asleep one night When i heard my mother scream I flew right up with such a fright I thought it was a dream I heard glass break and tables move As a child i had no clue I thought what do i have to lose And wen't to the living room There i saw her lifted up Completely off the ground He had her by her throat choked up I didn't make a sound Tears filled my eyes as he hit her He beat her black and blue I saw blood completely cover her I didn't know what to do I trembled with fear asking him to stop He laughed right in my face I threatened to call the cops But he hit her harder in her face I ran to my room for my monkey That my daddy bought for me I crawled up in my closet I prayed god please take me Keep my mother safe out there And Take us both if you must But make this madness stop i swear Or i am going to bust The cops arrived and i crawled out To see if they could help They said she needed a doctor now And all i done is wept My mother wasn't moving much But i could hear her breath I thanked the cops so very much For coming to her needs A cop hugged me and smiled real big He said everything's ok You did the right thing as you did By calling us today I asked is my mom going to die? He looked at me with tears He said no she will be just fine There's nothing more to fear Hospital bed she layed that night With me upon a small cot I stared at her and watched her fight And layed there in a knot I stayed with mom through all her years Of somehow needing him His beatings to her made things real clear Things then became less dim He'd always say im sorry babe Please take me back i love you Hosptial bed my mom's best friend Nothing i could do I lived with this for many years from nine until seventeen After this there were no tears And grew my self esteem I think back on life and i know why I never moved to far from my mom She needed me there right by her side Those Bad days now are done and gone [comments] => 3 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 32 [informant] => Syk0hsGirL [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
