Jane; This poem saddened me when I read it. Women oftimes put up with this because of the love they have for their children, and the fear of living alone and trying to raise a family. I feel for you and the hurt you feel. I hope you know and understand this is not YOUR fault. Take care. Wanda

>The ones who made me to see the truth
>Even if i'm in my youth
>To see the arguments and hear the fights
>And know I can't cure it with all my might
