Why Do People Hurt The People They Love?

This is a poem about horrible crimes of domestic, spouse, and child abuse.

Why Do People Hurt The People They Love?

Why do people hurt
The people they love
What was he proving
You're as pure as a dove

Why did he do it
It seems so unfair
How could you love him
When he didn't care

Why did it happen
I'm glad he's not me
I don't understand
What couldn't he see

I know things will get better
Just hold on tight
Believe in yourself
And you'll win the fight

I want you to know
I love who you are
To me you are special
And to me you're a star

Jarom Lee Thurston - 1992
(Abusing women and children is always a crime)
