here is my entry to the White Ribbon Contest--hastily done short on time SARABELL ©Clark A. Mortensen 2004 pierre's digital studio
I go to bed at night and sometimes in the day
hoping when I wake things won't be the same
I'm only six years old little Billy just turned three
what daddy does to mom Haunts me in my dreams
He didn't use to be the angry man he is today
I don't know what has changed inside to make him be this way
I try to be real good hoping that will make it right
but the bottle in his hand says he's looking for a fight
Dear God, it's Sarabell--- I sure could use some help
Little Billy and I aren't doing very well
If you can hear these words---wash away my mommas hurt
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
dad pulls back his hand and lets his anger fly
Mom falls to the floor tears streaming from her eyes
he turns and looks at me as I run upstairs and hide
I wonder if he sees the hurt flowing from my eyes
Dear God, it's Sarabell--- I sure could use some help
Little Billy and I are living in this hell
If you can hear these words---wash away my mommas hurt
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
I go to bed at night and sometimes in the day
hoping when I wake things won't be the same
I'm only six years old little Billy just turned three
what daddy does to mom Haunts me in my dreams
He didn't use to be the angry man he is today
I don't know what has changed inside to make him be this way
I try to be real good hoping that will make it right
but the bottle in his hand says he's looking for a fight
Dear God, it's Sarabell--- I sure could use some help
Little Billy and I aren't doing very well
If you can hear these words---wash away my mommas hurt
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
dad pulls back his hand and lets his anger fly
Mom falls to the floor tears streaming from her eyes
he turns and looks at me as I run upstairs and hide
I wonder if he sees the hurt flowing from my eyes
Dear God, it's Sarabell--- I sure could use some help
Little Billy and I are living in this hell
If you can hear these words---wash away my mommas hurt
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
and help my daddy see--when he hurts mom It's killing me
