Never should abuse be tolerated. It's time we took a stand against abuse of any kind. Here is my story....
The misusing
Of my trusting soul
Abusing my being
Ripping me apart
No longer whole
Now thrust into this hole
Black,
Darkness deep
He hit me
A slap was the beginning
Nearly killing me was our ending
Tears falling because I still love you
Believing when you said you only do this to show love
Damn,
I want to be normal
Don't want these scars
Don't want the lies I have to tell
Breakaway, faraway please away from me stay
Didn't know this would be my life
Never knew I'd be too afraid to fight (back)
Broken wings
Had me believing I was nothing
Suppressed my ability to just up and leave
And so I stayed
Endured
Cried
Told the lies
Kept quiet
Dinner on time
Clothes washed and neatly pressed
Laid still as you took me night after night
Until that night it almost became permanent
The punches
The kicking
The spitting
The I hate you's
As I lay silent on the floor gasping for air
Finally realizing I do not want to be here
Eyes closing
Spirit leaving
I'm almost there
Almost free
Freedom
Freedom
Yes,
The light I so clearly saw
Became dark once more
As I heard them say we have a pulse.....
