My Savior

Another fight with the parents
Another night of misery
I called you because I needed to talk to you
You answered and instantly noticed that something was wrong
Scared of what might have happened you asked me what went wrong
I told you the about the fight
And the new bruises that I had received
You told me that you loved me
And that you wanted me to get out of the house now
I walked to the place where I first meet you
I sat down and waited for you
When you finally cam and saw me sitting down crying
You ran over to me and kissed away my tears
I was ashamed to look at you
For I knew how he made me look
You gently put your hand under my chin
To make me look at you
You saw the pain in my eyes
And you became outraged for what my father had managed to do yet again
You said that I didn't deserve to be treated like that
You stood up and took my hand and pulled me up
You kissed me lightly on my swollen lip
And told me that you would take care of it
You snuck me into your room and helped me wash off the blood
You gave me a shirt and told me to go to bed that you had something to do
You stayed with me until I fell asleep
Then you sneaked out and went to confront my father
You barged right in and found him passed out drunk on the couch
You walked around and found a bat then came back to him
You poked him with it yelling at him to wake up
You told him that he was never going to see me again
That he was not going to be able to hurt me ever again
He swung at you and you swung back
He missed but you didn't
You showed him what it felt like to be hit
You helped me go to the police and turn him in
He was never allowed near me after that night
You never left my side through any of it
You saved me from him
And for this I will always love you
