It was like love at first sight........ or I thought it was.
So much time and energy, I cannot even run away if i had the option.
You hold me down with your words as if they are shackles,
You took advantage of my vulnerability and abused me.
You stripped away all freedom.
A raging bull charging at me made my eyes bleed.
Hearing you speak made my ears bleed.
Who are you who am I.
I scream, you hear, but do you understand me.
I hide, you notice, but do you actually see me.
I am a person who thought I was in love.
