A Hertfelt Cry

He raises his voice louder and louder it goes I beg him stop, stop ,please stop He grabs me, he pushes me The more I beg him to stop, the angrier he becomes I slap him thinking it will stop him Oh so wrong I am, his anger deepens He hits me again and again The pain oh so strong I tell only one, his sister Soon too be mine if this, this pain I can endure I cry often for I love him so I cry often for I can't take his pain away Oh Lord place your heeling hands on the one I love so Ease his pain, give him strength to let go of his past Show him your love so he can truly love again
