I AM A HUMAN BEING AFTER ALL .....

I am a human being
Yes,  I am
not beaten
nor dragged down
But I am a person
Not willing to be
pushed,
slapped,
spat on,

Yes I am a person
not to be yelled at
certainly not a punch bag
I am Yes I am a human being
Yes I deserve some respect

I asked God to make it stop.?
He answered me in a different way.
I begged him to give me an answer
He told me to stick it out..

I told God that this wasn't the answer.
I just knew in my heart I needed to run
fast,  far away from this early grave

He said daughter, I know you are hurting, and their is no excuse for these
beatings. But there is a time for everything I watched and waited
I carried you through these bad times.

I wanted you to wait for the right time
So that i could carry you safely in my arms.

You are my princess and bride.
When i gaze into your eyes
I made you and you are a part of me..

"Give me all your tears." and I will wipe
them away.
Come now please do not fret
For I will be your husband
Forget the past press on and don't
you ever quit....

amazing faith in an unseen deity that would ask you to be patient and endure such horrific circumstance! Your poem expresses that faith remarkably, but don't ever ever believe that you deserve anything less than RESPECT, LOVE, KINDNESS.

Oh yes! We do not always understand God's timing, but it is His timing, and is always the perfect moment!
A very touching write my dear friend!! I am sorry you had to endure such abuse!!
