Wunschliste
In the shade of love's inviting glow
My father gave his nod and whispered “Go”
To marry you, the one I’m meant to be with
But soon found myself drowning in despair, adrift
Shocked and distraught, we conversed
I declared my threat, my feelings immersed
Change or I leave, my ultimatum’s plea
Met with violence, a storm within me
Pre-Chorus
Anger masked in suppressed moods
A toxic dance, in these love interludes
Physical and mental scars, the awful truth
Abuse in disguise, a painful sleuth
Chorus
Love shouldn’t wield a hurtful shove
Protection and care, the epitome of love
Agree, disagree, let the past disband
Love the one you’re with, hand in hand
The whispers of promises lost in the fray
I sought solace but found dismay
Each day a battle, within my own home
Struggling in silence, feeling so alone
Courage summoned, I took my stand
No longer trapped by his tightening hand
In the echoes of freedom, I found my voice
Choosing my path, making my choice
Pre-Chorus
Hurts buried deep; fears intertwined
The scars are invisible, etched in the mind
Yearning for love, a gentle caress
Instead, a reality of turmoil and distress
Chorus
Love shouldn't wield a hurtful shove
Protection and care, the epitome of love
Agree, disagree, let the past disband
Love the one you’re with, hand in hand
The mood the anger
Were all suppressed
It was physical and mental
It’s all abuse
Chorus
Do not hurt the one that you love
Protect and care for her
Agree, disagree, move on
Love the one you're with
I was shocked, we talked
I threatened to leave
If he did not change
I would leave him
He became so violent
I could not stay silent
I do not open his mail
As he serves time in the County jail
