The Wrong Touch

by Jeannie Shinn - Taurus

The Wrong Touch

When my heart began to bleed
You came to me in a time of need
I opened the door and let you in
All my love you did win

Hurting me; he had no right
To this day I continue to fight
How can someone harm you with a touch
The bad dreams I battle so much

I want to learn to trust again
To be able to allow a life to begin
Why did God choose me
He only knew I would see

Is this a pattern of abuse 
My heart and feelings they misuse
I will go on and try
And for my family no longer cry

My feelings I will learn to trust 
Being strong for my family is a must
Every night the nightmares still stay
Please help me to make them go away.

    Sometimes in life things happen for unknown reasons and this I just hope says it all.
