A Not So Happy Time

You found someone that you loved Believing he loved you That was until you saw When his abusive side shined through You shared with him a child A happy time in life A time for you to celebrate For now you're a mother and a wife But happy times and happy days Didn't last for long You had to protect your child For both of you, you had to be strong Soon that part of your life Thankfully became your past Because inside your heart you new That union couldn't last So, life continued forward Like it does when we make change It takes some time to readjust But you already knew the rules of the game Then, maybe with some good fortune You'll find a gentleman One who treats you like a lady One who will never raise his hand 1-31-19/RjH
