of his deleterious touch
that lingered within my soul.

I struggled
I've always been a flower, delicate and soft
My beauty always praised, my presence always loved
I flutter in the wind, my petals colourful and bright
Smiling at the world, shining in the sunlight
you break my heart once;twice;again;and again;and again;i hold my heart together with sellotape,holding out hope, too much hope, thatone day you’ll give me the super glue to keep me from breaking permanentlyforever
I wasn’t always this harsh,
I had a kind heart full of love,
But someone came along,
and plunge their hand,
through my soft chest tearing me away,
I know in a moment of weakness I failed you
I can't rewrite the past
Only move on
I write here today not to mop but rather to reminisce
The silence after,
My world feels shattered.
Tears roll down my body..
bruised and battered.
Time slows in the wake of the disaster,
Family
They are everything
To the outsider, we are perfect.
No rough edges. No problems. No imperfections.
No one sees the internal workings of a broken machine.
Just because I have a smile on my face,It doesn't mean that I don't cry when I'm alone.Doesn't mean I don't have problems,Doesn't mean I'm not dying inside.All it means is that I can look past the negative in my life.
Don’t call me beautiful when your hands have become wrenches
prying open my legs.
Your eyebrow raising into your hairline as you
unsuccessfully try to ease the words out of your mouth,
like two roads
They say after graduation, adulthood hits you, But I still yet feel the same, Even when I threw my cap in blue, Also when they called my name, It wasn't until my dad found out about my relationship, And I was put to shame, I lost their respect, I

Mother, you made me grow up fast.
Out of the house, onto the street.
There was no love for me to last,
Her anger giving off heat.
Every word you said in the past,
Remembering is my nightmarish feat.
you think i dont love you. i dont dont dont because im mean. you dont know that i do. i really do but i cant tell you. i already tried to love you but that didnt work. you told me i was only upset because of my stupid teenager brain.

Running through the streets
I feel so free
Until I am beat
How could I not see?
Those days long behind me
Soft like a dream
Now I finally see who I want to be
Free, to sow up their seems
You took 18 years of my life.
You destroyed the inside of my head.
all the thoughts of you, the mixed emotions I get bring me to a whole other world I can no longer stand.
a world of hate and abuse.
i feel sad.
i feel sad because the world is angry.
i want to use my words to sooth its temper
but paper isn’t enough.
and when i shout them,
“Come on! You know I would never hurt you,”
That sentence holds so much pain untold
The invisible scars he has left littered all over my mind cannot be erased
Mother grabs me, leaving bruises on my skin.
My veins release blood deep from within.
Like times before, I know that she'll win.
My dear mother has grown sick with sin.
i used to try on my father’s clothes
his attire never seemed to fit me,
in his eyes anyway.
i felt the emptiness in his
work shirt,
envying how it compared to my shoes.
leather and sole,
So the adage;
The fall after a pride is true after all.
At the crossroad I stand,
Uncertain of the path to take this time around.
Man for chill.
After all I only live once.
I took to abusing drugs.
I am a victim.
I am a victim of my own mind.
I hold myself captive.
I am also my own abuser.
For years I have abused myself
into being the victim of my own mind.
You've hurt me once and you've hurt me twice, but now it's my turn to throw the dice.
I play my cards and I pay the toll, who knows what fate the dice will roll.
Our world is filled with too much violence, corruption, greed and injustice. It's why I versed it,Earth Battlefields. We been neglected,and abused in many forms. For too many years. What ignorance refused to understand.
Abuse.
It is real.
It is not an easy fight.
It is waiting at night, haunting your dreams,
It is some kind of awful scheme,
What You Stole
I see your hand prints
I see their traces on my skin,
Unwanted finger tips caressing my thigh
I saw you in a mirror today
But it wasn’t your face I saw
It was mine.
I saw your hardened eyes
