Victoria's Story
                                   Is a story of courage sacrifice and love,
                                   Brought to her by a shameful abuse thereof.
                                   Tainted and blamed for her inward beauty,
                                   She kept her honor for her children's purity.

                                   Knowing the pain of her wonderful convictions,
                                   She slept in the arm's of man's imagination.
                                   Though tormented of tears and pillows glove,
                                   Her pride held her and gave her strength thereof.

                                   Now she walks away from a battered past,
                                   Leaving those who hurt her with a tainted mask.
                                   A mask someday that will uncover their shame,
                                   For God has a way to make blame...
