Past
Divorced with three children and one on the way
Lost, her world hanging on a thread, no a fray
Running from abuse and the cruelty of a man
Taking care of three, herself doing what she can
All the while being hunted and stalked like prey
Watching over her shoulder every night and day
Lonely for a companion, someone to love her right
She prayed that God might send her a loving knight
To protect her and allow her to finally feel shielded
From all the evil people and past weapons wielded
She began seeing a man but he was only in dreams
He loved the kids, he loved her, perfect so it seems
Months later he would show up in her real life.
They dated shortly then he ask her to be his wife.
