Turmoil Within Four Walls
From a tumultuous beginning
The curly headed boy came
Watching his father mistreat his mother
Time and time again
He also suffered at his fathers hand
This innocent curly headed boy
His father wounded his body
But his spirit he did not destroy
The curly headed boy a teenager now
Had watched his mother’s pain
This day he grabbed his father
And dealt him the same!
His father never raised his hand again
To to this sweet boy or his mother
He protected and kept his mother safe
He so deeply loved her
The curly headed boy now an older man
Humble , decent with a gracious mind
A loving ,protective father he became
His turmoil is the past ….left behind!
