She Wanted To Rest In Peace

She wanted a husband and a married life She wanted a child and to forever be a wife She wanted to be happy and smile Instead of go through this trial She felt hurt and alone As she struggled to find in him her home Pushed down on the floor with a hand on her neck Beating the anger into her head With a fist She layed there and didn't resist She felt the punches to her head that pained And her hurt face that wore a red stain She felt the familiar pain arrive As past memories of separation became alive Pain rushed through her heart as she strived To move forward and survive Her broken heart And her soul that fell apart All she wanted now was to pray to go To  her granmothers new home She had patience but it was not good enough And everytime she went through a separation it was tough Cry it out, let the river flow Allah sees everything and knows She did not drink, drug, cheat or abuse Yet she got tossed as though she was refuse Now all she wanted was to go to her gran on the other side Where there are no emotional rollercoaster rides All she wanted was to be released All she wanted was to rest in peace
