Sometimes late at night
I hold you close to me.
I listen to you breathe,
My beautful baby.

Sometimes late at night
I hear your gentle cry.
I wrap you in my love,
Wipe each tear from your eye.

Sometimes late at night
I can feel your heart beat
Little rythmic pulses.
The sound is ever sweet.

Sometimes late at night
I cry myself to sleep
remembering your dad,
the vow he didn't keep.

Sometimes late at night
I can still see his face
Raging as he kicked me,
Taking what he can't replace.

Sometimes late at night
I truely wish that I
could have protected you
from him. I want to die.

Sometimes late at night
I hold you close to me.
I listen to you breathe
My beautiful baby.

Oh this is so tragic, I am so sorry if you went through this. Such an expression of pain.
You should go read my poem evil, from a week ago, it sounds like the same man.
Take care.
Good thoughts going out to you

Incredibly sad and ever so tragic. I am truly sorry if you indeed did go through this. I have a couple in my archives that can almost relate... like cat said... we all seem to have the same man in common.
*((HUGS))*
The titles of mine are, "A Game of Cherades" and "Silence"  If you've got nothing better to do, check them out. Great work, capturing this, though.  

Never give your heart away, it will always come back broken.

so sad, in the days ahead just remember that you have a gift from up above that no one can ever take away.

oh my, oh my, oh my..i can only hope that you did not go through this ordeal...if you have i send my condolences...you have put together a sad and tragic poem which was beautifully written...
so sad and tragic, yes indeed
this poem of hurt done onto your seed
a strength uncanny you have built
the strength of a rose, that shall not wilt

i tried, stay strong


"my love is my motivation
my love is my inspiration
perception of this poem
is your interpretation"

Rosebud,JnR and T.Rose,
Thank you for your kind remarks.  If only it had been just a poem and not my heart on a page.  Thanks again.

Hugs and Kisses,
Paula

The child you have, born of hate
can soften your heart for your mate
but if things don't change
when it's said and done
run for your life with your little one.
Sad, strong poem.
Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
