I saw a woman with her baby
Walking in the night
I could tell from her expression
That she was putting up a fight
The baby started crying
So she whispered in it’s ear
It’ll be ok
As long as daddy isn’t here
I noticed her beaten body
And her well-known fear
She seemed to be used to
Dropping one more tear
Please hold on
Your broken heart will heal
Just give it time
To remember how to feel
The man who ruined her life
Gave her another
She was brave enough to hold on
Until things got better
Now the baby girl
Is married with a daughter
Grandma smiles as she watches
The baby play with her father
