She saw before her an angel's hand, she reached for it crying,
the angel voiced "I understand"
the keys to her future came today
she took with her an heirloom of yesterday
inside her belly a child grew,
she could not let him have her
this she knew.
So with fear and angst she turned away
from a past so violent she could not stay
but he followed and stole that child back
brutally physical was the attack
she lay bleeding upon the floor
contemplating the end
relief, pain no more
and that is when the angel came
and offered to take her home
in god's grace she stands
now never again alone
