The Battle
Together...
in another world.
Fighting heartbreak...
a battle beyond comprehension.
Eyes... Dark and Piercing
Hearts... Beating Wildly
Bodies... Thrashing and Fighting
Holding Him Close...
Drowning in Sweat and Tears....
Fighting... Screaming... Cursing...
Another Second... Another Minute... Another Hour...
STOP!!!!!!
PLEASE STOP HURTING ME!!!!!!!
I'm not hurting you. I'm keeping you safe.
Together...
in another world.
Fighting heartbreak...
a battle beyond comprehension.
Eyes... Begging and Pleading
Hearts... Scarcely Beating
Bodies... Hardened and Tense
Holding Him Close...
Slipping in Sweat and Tears...
Begging... Pleading... Trembling...
Another Second... Another Minute... Another Hour...
STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MAKE HIM STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE'S HURTING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who's hurting you, Baby????????
Tell me who's hurting you?????????????
Together...
in another world.
Fighting heartbreak ...
a battle beyond comprehension.
Eyes Burning...
Hearts Breaking...
Bodies... Quiet and Limp
I Hold Him Close...
for Another Second... Another Minute... Another Hour...
MOMMY?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Mommy's here baby! Mommy's keeping you safe.
Mommy will NEVER let him hurt you like that again!
Together...
in another world...
Fighting heartbreak...
a battle beyond comprehension.
Our Eyes... our Hearts... our Bodies...
Tangled...
in a sweaty heap on the kitchen floor...
as we hold each other close...
Forever!
