A woman who loves her child, but she hates his father.

The scars you left can never be erased. 

And even now, your pictures make my heart race. 

Sure the bruises and the pain went away. 

For a week, in a hospital bed I lay. 

Pain was gone, bones on the heal. 

But in my heart, a heaviness I could still feel. 

God, I wish you had been sober. 

Fortunately, my boyfriend was on his way over. 

When he opened the door and saw you on top of me, 

He wasn't content with a few broken bones, I see. 

Now it's four years past, 

Forever the pain will last. 

I have a four year old son, 

I love him, but I still hate you and what you had done. 

I love Kris more everyday, 

And that feeling will never go away. 

Thank God my boyfriend didn't go, 

"Will I ever leave?" he asked. "Never, no." 

Then he asked if I still trusted him, 

I told him they were different people, I could never confuse them. 

Now, my boyfriend is my fiance, 

Together, we watch Kris grow everyday. 

Our son will never know of you, 

And I'd die before I told him, too. 

He'll never know of how you raped me, 

So, stay out of our lives and let us be.
