She looks at the bruises
all over her body
dark blue and black
she tried to hide them
and keep them a secret
but i saw them
and i saw the pain
you could see it in her eyes
it was screaming to get out
he did this to her
he left those marks
and he caused the scars
he said it was her fault
and she believed him
she never fought back
she just took it
but one day she looked at her
her reason for living
her beautiful little girl
and she saw something
dark blue and black
