I Must Go On..

by keyona   Aug 20, 2004


If only you knew the way you make me feel.
You make me feel like this is real.
The love, the passion, my one hearts desire.
You make me feel like I am on fire.
Yours eyes, your kiss.
Both of these in my dreams I miss.
I wake up crying,
Inside I feel like I am dying.
Your not next to me,
Your face I can not see.
Sometimes I wake up and see the dawn,
And I smile and then notice that your gone.
Sometimes I wonder what life would be like without you here..
Then in my eyes I feel a warming tear.
You don't understand why I won't admit
But its all because I can't commit.
You see when I was a little girl about my daughters age,
I was 6 er 7 when my dad came in, in a rampage.
I wondered what I did wrong.
He said he hated me for so long.
I was scared when he threw me on the bed.
Then a little bad verse I remember he read.
“I am going to get you no matter what you do!”
“All because I hate you I hate YOU!”
He screamed louder and louder as his voice grew fierce.
Through me I felt a pierce.
My own father did this to me...
Now I can not commit can't you see.
I have been beaten and bruised,
Sexually abused.
My daddy was my first.
Since then I have been cursed.
Now I let no man go near her.
So now nothing like that to her can occur.
I am tortured everyday with this fear.
Everytime I think about it I feel a tear.
But my fear has to leave.
And from you, your love I must receive.
I will say yes to the question you ask.
For me and my daughter I must fulfill this task.
