Oh hard it is to wish goodwill on the one who hurt you the worst
Their hands roughly savaging as their greed and lust strengthened
Yanking the innocence from underneath your small child legs
Little boy loves mother dearly
As she hugs him so securely, clawing hands tight on little body
He starts sobbing and she’s grinning, so ungodly
Keep searching for the lyrics of a broken heart
But no words can really express the pain that I feel
No one will ever understand the life I have lived
So I am left here to write this myself.
A spark of emotion birthed a flaming relationshipText messages and posts proclaim the feelings you have to the worldYour once boring life took a spin, and FLIPThe problems in your life just vanished; unfurled
Because I love you
I heard it every day
After each beating
After each round of screaming
I cowered
Because he loved me
He loved me so much it was an honor to be his
To be worth his time
Free
Push her to the ground, watch her fall.See how strong you are?She cries from the pain and you just listen to her screams.Over and over again, In her mind, she dies.
An eleven year old hops the steps
up to the trailer they live in.
The door clangs shut, as the frame is warped.
Poverty-stricken Tennessee, United States.
An eleven year old in jeans and a hoodie
Gather round boys and girls it’s storytime and I have a tale to tell. Once upon a time there was a girl. This girl did not know love, she didn’t know how to smile, she thought of laughter as a folktale and pain a reality.
Kiss my hand before you break my fingers,
The stinging pain will always linger.
Light fingertips stroke my cheek before you leave a bruise,
Without an option, there is no way I may refuse.
Because of you I'm scared for life
Because of you I'm scarred for life
Because of you I'm afraid to trust my best friends...
Breathing
His hot breath on my neck, he’s
Deceiving those around him
Skin crawling, tears falling
Blows to the ribs, blows to the thighs
I lied for your attention.
“It’s broken”
“Sorry, ran out of ink”
“I had to shut it down because of the storm”
All of these excuses I told
Not because I hated you
But because I loved you
Why
Does Daddy keep hitting me?
Why
Does Daddy keep yelling?
Why
Does Mommy keep hurting me?
Why
Does Mommy keep screaming?
Why
Am I so hated?
Why
Am I so worthless?

It is because of you
That I am lost
it is because of you that I
Have been found
It is the fire that you
Gave to me
That heats my hot air
