Pardon Me

Don't look for me I'm not there Look around.... Am I anywhere? Not under the bed Behind the couch Not in the shed or behind the door I'm not anywhere you'll find me anymore. No more bruises there to hide No sunglasses to cover my eyes Without me, where would you be? So Pardon Me "if you can't sleep". Yes, you wonder, where I am You say to yourself How will I survive Where's the one I need to get by. To pay for my gas Supply all my meals Take care of my child... Pardon Me, What's the deal? I now smile, cause you are gone I awake with my children and know I am strong. I am woman Like "Joan of Arc" Fierce and heroic I will be Now that I know you can't find me. For the Woman who think they can"t do it, for those that are scared... Be scared enough to break away.....
