[hometext] => I wrote this piece because I was the victim of a dv assault.......But I'm willing to forgive and let go why can't everyone else? Comments would be greatly appreciated....thanx
[bodytext] => I closed my eyes And I felt you near It was only for a moment- I wiped a way a tear I wanna forget yesterday And look forward to tomorrow It seems impossible- I feel so empty and hollow I pretend I’m okay…. Even force a smile Too much has happened The pain will burn for awhile It would make things easier If everyone would leave me alone And understand that this is something I must deal with on my own No one really knows What’s happened or what’s been said His future is not in my hands He made his own bed But regardless of what happened I can’t control my heart I can’t wait to see him And maybe have a fresh start Only if he’s willing to get help And really wants to change his ways Who gives anyone the right To decide how he pays I’m the one who’s hurting It’s me who can’t sleep at night It’s not you who’s taking the risk So back off……this isn’t your fight What he did was wrong But the judge is being a little rough He’s already going to miss his daughters birth Don’t you think that’s punishment enough? So who’s really being punished here Is it him or me? I think we’ve both suffered enough Washington…..Can’t you just let us be?
