Future Learning Stops the Hurting
If I had a time machine
I'd erase the things I've seen
Going back in time I would
Do the things I never could
Learning from my past would be
Changing my whole history
A girl too scared to realize
My families love was a disguise
Wrapped up in false lies and faith
Now I can see all the hate
That was brought into the years
And all of the hurt stained tears
It would be a whole lot better
As a warm and cozy sweater
Of love wraps me in the arms
Of parents who's hugs are warm
Not ones in a house of hate
Knowing it was not too late
To get help by saying something
Magically it would then bring
Me out of a hurtful family
To ones who's love was meant for me
Thinking back I would have changed
The way it was and re-arranged
Everything that went so bad
Going from sorrow to glad
