Message to women in violent relationships.

Women ,let me tell you this,

it comes right from my core,

you need to be your own best friend

from now to evermore.

Don't let any Mr. Hunk

leave you with a frown,

don't let someone else's power

ever get you down.

Don't jump just because HE says to ,

don't lose yourself...to please.

Don't ignore it when he's rude,

don't put up with a sleaze.

Don't say you 'do not mind the pain,'

when he has crushed your soul,

don't tell him 'that's okay' when everything he's stole.

Don't be a sweet and timid wimp, downtrodden 'til you're mad.

Don't accept excuses when he's lost all you've had.

Don't bother with those macho jerks who tell you 'males ARE boss!'

for equality must never be subject to your loss.

Don't be a mat, you're more than that,

this truth you must condone, don't be afraid to make the choice

of facing life ...ALONE.

You never were 'the other half' you ALWAYS were a WHOLE.

It's better to live life alone ,than let him wound your soul.

Believe you have the right to be 'treated like a queen.'

Don't be abused, and don't be used,

don't let him treat you MEAN.

Don't let him make you hate yourself,

or make you feel that low. Don't ever live with violence,

if you find that with him...'GO'

The surest step to mend your heart

is knowing when to walk APART.

Yes dare to fly ,

it's worth a try' there is no time like NOW.

You can make things better ,let me tell you how.

First of all the thing to do, is get some faith. BELIEVE IN ...YOU.

Take this leap,your courage keep, TRUST..for this is true.

It's okay that you forgive,

but, also ...say: ' goodbye.'

Second chances are the reason

many women DIE.

Just because you forgive it,

doesn't mean you HAVE TO live it.

Don't tranquilize your pain away,

popping pills to help you stay.

Pills that help you cope with HELL,

turn you into ...just a SHELL.

Want a pill that really cures?

Prescription?...'ACTION,'

(changing yours.)

This script I give is not in Latin,

just make the break ,

and break the pattern.

Not lastly...you must LOVE yourself ,

and see your precious worth,

believe there is a reason why YOU were put on earth.

Once you start to SAVE yourself your world will rearrange,

so go ahead, unmake your bed, your time has come for change..

Don't delay another day,today's the time to start,

all the courage that you need, is hiding In your heart.

P.S..

Don't let your bad experience

sour your heart to males,

for there are MANY gentle ones,

whose caring never fails.
