Abused

I saw her face last night,
she was beaten and broken,
her eye bore the pains of the past,
her tale too hard to tell.

She gazed as if life battle was lost,
truly i knew her pains,
her pains were too hard to bear,
from her continual torture.

I know her pain,
but her pains have gone too long,
too long to be forgotten,
she gazed on.

I will fight her fight,
i will sort her pains,
i will stand by her,
healing every wound inside out.
