    Too Much to Handle

    She was only 16, And a good girl She believed in god She did what she was told But it still happened She said no and tried to fight But he just kept going She’s too scared to tell She cried for hours Asking god to forgive her  But her heart was still heavy She prayed more than she ever had be for  And one day god spoke He said “I tell you my child your pain is over I will take it away Tell your mom for I have talked to her she will understand.”  She did what god told her to do And her mom cried out “Why lord, why my child, why?”  She asked her mom if she can go to the doctors See if something happened It did She was standing there The phone still at her ear  She felt the warm tears fall down her face She though he was safe But no  Nine mouths later  She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl She took him to court And won  He was in jail for 15 years  But she knew that As soon as he was out He would come after her to kill her She started to pray as she drove home  “God please help me this is too much too handle on my own I need you, my little girl needs you Please.” When she got home she saw that god had answered her pray She saw on the news that more girls have been raped by him and that he was in jail for life  From that day on she knew god would be there. - Courtney Potter Note: This has not happened to me

    This story is just awful...the events I mean...but unfortunately it can't be dismissed. Things like this happen in our world all to happen. Glad it hasn't happened to you...and hope it will never.

    a horriable story - but all to true too many times -at least he is paying - i can only the girl and her baby are ok

    Poetry is what is lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
