Sad Side of Life


When I have been beaten


And bruised and my arm


Has been broken,




And my clothes have


Been torn in two




And there seem to be


No feeling of Love...And




I can not find the good


In me and all hope seems


All but gone,




And my faith has been shaken


And I fell I have lost my way,




And the feeling of freedom


Seems so far away,




I ask you to help me


To walk away from this


Thing called abuse.




No One Would Like To Be In My Shoes?
