A Walk In My Shoes

You don't know how I feel,
How could you, you're not me,
You don't know my hurts and pains,
You've never walked through life in my shoes.
You've never known my shame,
How life seems so unfair,
I wish my life had been a dream,
Unfortunately it's my reality.
This child abuse it seems,
It plays such a frightful plight,
In my prosperity,
Nothing has ever gone right,
In my entire life.
The beatings the verbal abuse,
All from the age of seventeen,
later in life onto marraige,
Oh what a frightful scene.
Then came the rape,
In all different kinds of forms,
Has a man the right,
Because you are his wife,
To help himself to your body,
In any shape or form.
So many people ask me,
How I managed to survive for all these years,
All I can say right now is,
If it weren't for my children,
I simply wouldn't be here now.
