Now I know you think
But the other guy and I never went over
That particular brink
Now I have stated that I am lonely before
But it is not my right to ask for more.

You see my man works hard
And is always out of town
So it is hard when he is never around
~
And before the doctors said I couldn’t work
I was a front desk clerk
And HE was there and talked to me
Next thing I knew we were as close as two friends could be.
~
We called and texted
And next thing you know
My little ole’ soul went Uh oh.
And I guess his did too
And that’s when everything
Went down the flue
~
But see went my man comes home
After weeks at a time
As soon as I hear his engine
I am racing out the door
And into his arms before the car door starts to chime
~
But it is hard being lonely
And I don’t see the other any more
So when I do it hits me to the core.
What can I say?
I shouldn’t ask for more.
~
But now it is just me most of the time
My daughter comes out of her room
When she has the time
and of course I live in BFE
And that is okay with me.
~
Blessed be.

My arm is bruised
“my gosh are you abused”
No, not anymore.
~
“But you have a black eye!”
yup and it is a silly reason
as to why,
so stop looking at me with dread!
~
Everything is in your head
~
“But…”
No just stop!
I mean it! I wouldn’t lie to you!
You were not there when it WAS true
~
Now i am just sick
Put down that phone!
I mean it!
“well I think your laying it on
a little thick. Sick? humph!”
~
I remember the times
I had to hide
behind my hair
or under the stair
but that was a long time ago
~
It was someone else
I had to fear
not him, do I make myself clear?
~
You need to know this
and I am sorry but it’s true
My heart is bad now
and there is nothing
anyone can do.
~
Do not be afraid for me
because I am finally happy
and I am used to bruises now
that appear if I shed a tear.
~
“But what about him?
He is so big! I am afraid of him!”
Oh silly, he is big this is true
but he can carry me
when I fall without a first clue
~
He is big enough to hold me
in arms that won’t let go
when my body tries to fail me
and when I walk real slow.
~
I know I look okay
in fact I do look good
but trust me dear
it’s a facade
a falsehood.
~
So do not be afraid
of the marks you see on me
all is well in Mialand
so please let it be.
