Winner
The abuse
Lasted for years
Completely drained
All my tears
Shook my heart
To the core
Beatings that left
Me in the floor
Losing the desire
To get back up
All the time thinking
Enough is enough
Always feeling
Out of place
Blood always
On my face
A mind now
Completely warped
Now being thrown
Through the door
Kicked around
Beat down
Feeling like
I’m going to drown
Crushing my faith
And now all hope
Trying to figure out
How I’m going to cope
Knowing somehow
I must hold on
If I give in
I will be gone
Why is everything
Always a fight
Now unable
To sleep at night
Then it happened
God took me from
A hopeless sinner
And turned me into a
FULL TIME WINNER
