Too Much to Handle
Too Much to HandleShe 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
