Dear God

Dear God,
Please forgive me
For I have sinned in many ways.
I’m not proud of myself
Everyday I am reminded…….everyday I pay.
I realized that I’ve made many mistakes
And that many people don’t trust me anymore
Please give me one more chance to show you and them
That’s all that I’m asking for.
I know that I don’t deserve this chance
And I know you, as well, have lost some faith in me
But I’m a good person and I love my daughter
With this chance I know that you will see.
You see, for some time I was away from you
I was away from everyone I loved………even me.
I thought I was in love with this guy….
Who I’m now pregnant by
Who abused me….
And for some reason
I still loved him endlessly.
I don’t know how I could let all of this happen….
Especially for so long…
But after awhile when running away didn’t work anymore
I felt like this is where I belonged.
Because, by that time,
I had no family and no more friends.
I think that was when I talked to you last
And prayed for this to not be where my life ends.
And you saved me……
And took me away
You took me to the emergency room….
But I knew that you were there and I’d be okay.
For some time I kept asking myself
What I could do to make him love me more
Because maybe then………
The beatings would stop.
But no matter how hard I tried
It always ended with ambulances and cops.
Now as I sit here 7 months pregnant
And face the harsh reality of it all
My depression just grows deeper
And all I wanna do is ball.
How do you explain to your unborn child someday,
That their father is in jail for the next 15 years of their life
And charged with domestic violence 2, Rape 2, and unlawful imprisionment……
On their mom while she was pregnant with them…………
Nothing will be the same….
And maybe….just maybe……
If I would’ve left sooner things would be different……
So really……….
Who’s to blame?????
