Hands

I can't believe you hurt me with those hands, knowing that they were the same ones you've held me in. You caressed my face and said I love you too, I grabbed your hand and said tell me again. Two years have gone by and there's something I have to say, You're gonna be a father oh I can't wait for the day. I'm now 4 months and my belly is growing, You rubbed my belly with those hands, And I let you without knowing, Tears pouring down my face like rain, Oh God please help me I'm in pain, Not in labor, haven't fell down the man that I loved has pushed me down. With those hands you held me in you rubbed my belly when our son was within I've held your hand and said I love you you've held my hand and said tell me again. I see hands often so small and sweet, they are the hands of my 2 angels oh how bittersweet. Those little hands reach for joy, Oh here they come a little girl and boy, They grab my hands and say mom I love you, I hold their hands and say TELL ME AGAIN.
