When your loved ones are in abusive relationships

I’m holding on

Holding out hope

Offering

Life is better on the other side

Of the line drawn in the sand

“Trust me”

Is the hope I have for you

Because I know what it’s like

Standing over there

Knowing the line is so arbitrary

So ultimate

You wonder why was it ever drawn

In the first place

But if you step over here

It’ll be over

And if you’re not ready to make that step

I’ll hope in time you’ll find

Reason enough in the love we have

To come back to reality
