[hometext] => This poem is another domestic violence piece. When you read this I hope it makes you think. There is hope for everyone in this kind of situation. Never let it be too late... there's always hope.
[bodytext] => Sirens... bright lights...
Hushed voices saying "you'll be alright"... Doctors yelling... nurses rushing... Little green line moving frantically... It stops... Silence in the room... then rushing all around... Sudden elation when the heartbeat is found... Stabilized... then into the OR... They said I wasn't airlifted very far... ICU... week after week... Coma stricken body yells "Defeat!"... Mind fighting on... won't give in... Made it through... Won't go back again... Trial's tomorrow... I'm stuck here... Better than facing my worst fear... Broken thoughts... Like gasps of air... Like the broken glass I laid in there... He got mad... I hit the table... Who knew he was that unstable... Married life... just one month... In the courtroom jury says enough's enough... Attempted murder... what's your plea... I lay comatose... He says guilty... File for divorce from my bed... Nurse tells my folks there's more ahead... Get to go home when I wake up... Make it alone... Refuse all his calls on my phone... Get tired of it... Change the number... Move away... Knowing that he's counting days... Slowly I learn how to cope... Him being locked away was my last hope.

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. ©
