Believe

The tabletop reverberated by your powerful fists My nail polish on the other edge, If it jumped an inch, It jumped five I caught it. Arm raised up over me, poised for the strike I believe you Scissors wielded like a dagger I believe you Bloodshot eyes consumed by rage I believe you "You don't know how easy it would be for me to kill you right now." I believe you still. . . Frozen, Paralyzed really, In time I would grieve The loss of Trust Heart racing now Don't Don't relive it Jolene Needed to hear It's not your fault You didn't deserve God give you Peace Cuz words like Others have it worse than you Others have lost their lives May be strictly true, Hollow Anger, But not necessarily at you I know you're broken Anger That nobody could see what I needed Anger I was supposed to treat it Like just another day Anger Don't know that I will ever trust you again Don't think I should But still I must end with Faith hope and love And the greatest is love As long as I can love I believe God will give me Peace.
