how could this happen...

she didn't ask for it,
why did she have to black out,
and they were supposed to be her friends,
i want to hate them for her,
i want to go to the police for her,
why her?

why does she have a drinking problem,
will she ever feel normal again,
will she ever feel safe?

you don't have the right to her,
god save her,
god give her strength,
god heal her

do you even hear her cries,
do you see her in her in bed at night,
do you forgive her?

give us the strength to stand by her,
give her the strength to let us in,
why?
how?
bless her

This a great poem jlyn. I believe I know who you are talking about in it. Am I right? She seams to be doing well since the incident. Maybe all of our prayers and your poem had something to do with it. I wish I had the answers to all of the questions that you brought up. Maybe just her and God will be able to sort that out. Sometimes horrible things happen when we turn our backs and plug our ears and close our hearts to our creator. But, when we turn around we she that he never left our side and that he has been suffering your pain right with you.
