Warning: Some<br />

Realness<br />

Ahead, Mom!<br />

He w as supposed t o<br />

be one she w ould<br />

grow old w it h?<br />

Not the one with his<br />

strong hands around<br />

her throat? .<br />

? pinning her up<br />

against the wall,<br />

collapsing her breath.<br />

She knew this was<br />

the end.<br />

And She Welcom ed It .<br />

Then the pain would<br />

be over.<br />

The wondering, the<br />

fear, the not knowing<br />

would be finished.<br />

Her vision and will<br />

started to fade little bit,<br />

by little bit, with each<br />

passing second his<br />

angry hands stood<br />

clasped around her<br />

throat.<br />

He was the one she<br />

gave her heart to?<br />

HEAD DREAMER'S NOTE<br />

War Has Been Declared On Stress! You With Me?<br />

Vowed her soul &<br />

marriage over to. It felt<br />

like so many lifetimes<br />

ago now.<br />

This wasn?t the man<br />

she married. This was a<br />

monster that drank<br />

and then took out his<br />

anger on her.<br />

She wanted to leave<br />

him but was scared.<br />

She w ant ed t o t ake<br />

t heir daught er and<br />

go,<br />

? but she didn?t know<br />

where and she was<br />

afraid to be alone.<br />

She remained<br />

hopeful that he would<br />

change.<br />

This night was the<br />

worst.<br />

On this night she said<br />

something he REALLY<br />

didn?t like and beat her<br />

more than ever before.<br />

7<br />

3<br />

This was how her life<br />

was going to end. He<br />

had her pressed up<br />

against the wall,<br />

stealing her life into his<br />

hands.<br />

She couldn?t<br />

breath? and she didn?t<br />

care.<br />

At least this way she<br />

wouldn?t have to live in<br />

constant fear and<br />

horror.<br />

Just t hen one w ord<br />

sliced t hrough all t he<br />

pain, all t he<br />

confusion?<br />

? . Cut razor sharp<br />

through all the<br />

acceptance of her<br />

oncoming death.<br />

?Mommy???<br />

That word belonged<br />

to a voice?<br />

? a sweet voice.<br />

The sweetest voice<br />

she?s ever heard.<br />

That voice belonged<br />

to her daughter.<br />

Her one bright light in<br />

a world of darkness<br />

and despair. The<br />

person that meant<br />

more to her than<br />

anything.<br />

She glanced over to<br />

where she stood in the<br />

hallway.<br />

There she was?<br />

? . her little angel?<br />

? she stood clutching<br />

her blanket and wore a<br />

very worried look on<br />

her beautiful face?<br />

? ..her daughter?s<br />

huge, beautiful blue<br />

eyes looked onward<br />

with horror at the<br />

scene transpired in the<br />

hallway outside her<br />

bedroom.<br />

Then the thought<br />

slammed into our Hero<br />

Mom like a ton of<br />

bricks.<br />

If she was to let this<br />

monster of an abusive<br />

husband take her life?
