I thought I knew where my life was going
knew what I wanted the minute I saw your smile showing,
we talked, and laughed, and connected in so many ways
wasn't long until with you I spent the majority of my days,

Finally I found the love I had been searching for
I didn't have to look anymore,
days turned to months, and boy time flew
together through adventures and tragedies our love grew,

one night you asked me if I would share join my life with yours
to the heavens I thought my heart would soar,
I wanted nothing more than to be your wife
to share in this world, everything good, even the pain and strife,

One dreadful weekend changed my life without warning
I spent the weekend with you, and now have spent the rest of the time mourning,
you had gotten into trouble, and we thought you were going to be sent away
with just my luck, right before the holidays,

So with you I wanted to spend what time I could
didn't think anything would come of it, unless it was good,
dinner was wonderful, then there was some wine
glass after glass in too short of a time,

I started to feel woozy and wanted to relax
so I went to soak in a hot bath,
forgot to lock the door behind me
never expected as I was getting out, you'd be there rushing at me,

Everything happened so quickly
my head hit the corner of the tub so sharply,
I cried and said no, please don't do this to me
you didn't listen, you wanted to have your way with me,

I lost track of time as everything went dark
came to later with a start,
laying in the bathroom floor, no one in site
weeping softly, I cleaned myself as best I could, shivering with fright,

why couldn't you have waited for our wedding night?
you stole my virginity, that wasn't right,
I've cried myself to sleep so many times
and after the weeks that followed, I'll never forget the crime,

within weeks I was hospitalized
miscarried the pain that you fertilized,
I ran from you with all my might
slowly with time, faded the fright,

Nearly 6 years has passed since you took everything from me
I thought for the rest of my life that I'd be hollow and empty,
I still wake from sleep from nightmares and tears
but no longer do I hold anymore fears.
