DEAR HUSBAND
Dear husband
Somehow you fell into my life at just the right time
Even though I was with my ex your presence just felt right
He would beat me almost every night
I was to scared to leave and to scared to fight
You kept coming to my work and asking me out
I kept telling you no , but I wanted so badly to go
I feared he would come after you and I had no idea what to do
He pulled up to my work one night and seen me talking to you
He gets out of the car with a tire iron and starts walking toward you
You just laugh at him and tell him to think about what he is about to do
That he will need more then a tire iron to come at you.
I had never seen him back away from anyone, I was so confused
Then I realized for some reason he was afraid of you.
That was the day Instead of leaving with him I left with you
You told me you would keep me safe and show me a different way
A life where I did not have to be scared and I would not have to cry
A life filled with love , laughter and light
Thank you my husband for not giving up on me
It is because of you that I still breath
Thank you my husband for saving my life
I will love you until the end of time
not bad

Very True, I was stuck and was very depressed and abused , I am very lucky my husband came along and did not give up as I told @timelaspe in another comment my husband came everyday for 35 days and asked me out and I told him no every time. I did not want to put my now husband in danger , my ex was crazy, but did not scare my husband at all even when my ex had a tire iron , he got back in his car and left, I had never seen my ex walk away from a fight.

Sometimes the unspoken spirit of someone protecting the innocent is far more powerful than any human force. You have a great man with a good heart, that's powerful right there.

Thank You, I had it pretty bad for a long time until my husband came into the picture. The thing is he came back every day for 35 days until I said yes.

A really great poem @halo, but I think it seems more like a rap song. You can convert it into a rap song.
