SATAN'S TORMENT
Torment manifests in my soul
Loved ones seem compelled to console
I live my past again and again
People’s sympathies bring back pain
Suppressed feelings vanquish
Longing grief shall languish
Infuriating my flesh with pain
Someone remind him of his shame
How I wonder about her fears
Far beyond my withered tears
Believe me when I tell you this
My child’s father stole her bliss
Such torment frustrates my world
Satan exploited my little girl
How can I subjugate this hell
When Satan lives within her shell ?
