Truth Hurts
Where I go wrong?
I can tell you,
I've went wrong in many ways.
I've been burned, punched in my mouth, like an a opponent in a boxing match.
Beaten, black blue and bruised.
I can only tell my side of my story
I am not sure what makes a man beat a woman.
It's degrading, it's cruel and wrong.
It could be your daughter or sister.
Sometimes men don't stop there.
When women try to get away for good, men need the power back.
And they go farther, possibly killing the woman.
I've seen it go that far.
Please try to change this.
It does get carried down to generation to generations.
I'm sorry to tell you that it's the truth.
Sometimes the truth hurts.

Nope
Im sorry
if the way
that I love you is too soft
My hands were bound with promises made With words that meant
to break them
My cries were muffled with sheets twisted in silk
That mopped up the milk That dripped from a broken cereal bowl
He threw at the wall
Right above my body
where my head broke my fall
I was naive in hoping for the end when I knew it was just the beginning
I tried to shut my eyes
but my world just kept on spinning
My nails numb to the carpet and
they just cant stop digging
I cant claw my way outta here
I can scream or yell my way out,i fear
the only thing that stops them is ny blood on their hands
and im just not bleeding yet
who knew there could be so much pain inflicted
with out leaving so much as drop baring witness
to the wickedness that hid inside.
who knew I could loose faith
In everything and still beg for anything other than what he was doing to me right fucking now
I just dont have the strength to fight back right now
I vowed
I would never, ever, ever
never ever, ever again
trust another person, lover, or friend
with even the smallest piece of me thag they could beat, bloody, break or bend
So im sorry
If the love I give you seems like a tiny quiet cry that gets carried away
In a soft summer breeze
when its compared To the way you can love somebody it looks like you love blindly with the greatest of ease

#hurt #broken #brokenheart #poemtherapy #poetry #DV #bruises #love #loss~I Deserved Better~
...
I deserved better
But we met long before winter.
When the weather was warm
And there was never a hint of a storm.
I deserved better
But I wrote poems and penned every letter.
Dreamed of our future together
I was so sure you were my forever.
I deserved better
But even flowers wither.
Yours turned to ash
The momoment you treated me like trash.
I deserved Better
Your last kiss was bitter.
The disgust on your face
When you turned from my embrace.
I deserved better
Long before you put my heart through the shredder.
I am grateful for the lesson
But I have one final question.
I deserved better....
So, was black and blue the color of your love,
Or did it simply bring you pleasure?

violence
it’s not always bloody.
it’s not always bruises.
it’s not always a crash.
it’s not always a scream.
it’s not always
threatening
curse
words.
I have experienced the most
violent of acts.
the ones that caused the most harm were the ones cloaked in
deceitful and dangerous,
abrupt and unexpected
words and actions.

Starve
Is nothing sacred anymore?!
Would you also pry open someone's locked door?
About time you learned what it's like to feel starved for a while.
For I've spent my evening singing, dancing,
occasionally the through windows at the skies I'm glancing. ️
Revisiting my values, my boundaries, dreams, and looking in awe and peace at the rain! ️
Proud of how far away I've brought myself from feeling pain
And can lay my pen down now softly, as I retire to bed, still wearing a smile...

Parallels of Warriors
It's useful but a shame when we can empathise.
When we can know and feel the same pain deep within someone's eyes.
The empathy greater amplified when they've sustained the exact same but earlier stage of trauma and abuse.
The fortunate thing is we can offer to them how we've coped, what strategies we've put to use.
The very worst of the many kinds I've been put through myself
Without expecting it, you can suddenly know has happened to a family member, or a friend.
I've only just been told the secret past of one of each: and neither are anywhere close to their healing journey's' end.
I know I had sworn my week would be internal and self-focuased, about my children and me
But not helping others when things of this calibre arise? You question it not.
For you know full well from the tears that fall the moment you've been made privvy
How you'd longed for that kind of help, yet on your path, you deserved but never got.
You can pass on the ways you took charge of your life, and acquired your strength.
You can share with them how you came to refuse to be controlled, or a hug, or make a spare room, and a bed.
You can be a testament to how far you've come yourself
By being their sanctuary, for their green, poor hurting head.

dare
You don't scare me anymore
I'm not that frightened little girl you knew...
I've toughened so much so
That a little voice inside me
Even challenges the idea, says bring it on!
Seriously... I bloody dare you...

KNOWING
Beneath my smiles is your anger
above my dreams are your walls
Beside my trambel is your anguish
Covered with single rose.
Hush now my orphaned hopes,
Run away from me like a wind
save yourselves from his shadow
and fall asleep in a ghostly mist.
Tick tock on the clock
My heart is slowing down
Knowing that redemption time
Is over
Knowing that you are almost gone.

No More Expectations
[[Expectation]]...
...Well, to me,
This is now a dirty word.
When you expect a damn good day,
Life turns it to a turd.
Don't expect to count on others,
They will always let you down.
Even when they say they won't,
They do; on the low-down.
If your dumb enough to trust a man,
Don't even get me started,
The only male I trust's my dog,
The worst he's done, is farted.
Years ago, I wed my love,
And treated him like my king.
So, he gave me: chlamydia,
A miscarriage, and beatings.
Just another expectation,
That I, somehow, had all wrong.
The next one came with:
Fractured bones and,
this here, "unexpected" song.
Dumb as hell, I tried again,
With other "nice young men".
"What a fucking waist of time",
I'd think, as I'd leave them.
By now, I've "learned" for 40 years,
But, the lessons stayed the same,
No matter how high women climb,
Men will always play their games.

He said he was sorry
He said, "it was your fault"
He said, "it won't happen again"
Last night he put you through the wall
He said, "you made me do it"
He said, "if you'd just listen"
He kissed your bruises
After you got up from the floor in the kitchen
You spent the night in the hospital
You called the cops
He's out already
I wish I could make him stop

Do comment so I can improve.I fall hard. My wings failing me and my love blinding me.No sob escapes my throat nor a tear from my eye. I swallow it all. Even though the tongues of flame lick me shamelessly, I am oblivious to everything but you. You and your beautiful spells. I know you'll walk away. And as I fall in a heap of embers, don't come near me. Don't look back. Fly away. Fly away to the heart that was someone else's. A heart unknowingly wanting to be broken.

Read MoreTick. Tock. Tick. Tock goes the clock. It's 3 in the morning and I'm still awake. My eyes refusing to rest and my heart refusing to stay still. I get up to see my reflection in the mirror. It's dark and even the moonlight seems to be ashamed to shine upon me. The dark doesn't even scare me anymore and I've befriended my demons. It's the reflection in the mirror that scares me. Inspite of being a frail being with baggy eyes and dark circles, it seems to mock at my futile attempts of masking my hollow existence. It chokes me by feeding lies and thoughts of hate, disgust and negativity. it picks at my looks and opinions as I try everything I can to hide myself behind photo filters and broken words. I wonder where It had all gone wrong. Now I'm only a silhouette of the cheerful girl that I had once been. I fake smiles and force laughs through gritted teeth. All those people who ask if I'm okay don't know that I'd forgotten what "okay" meant. but still, I manage to convince them I am. They'll never know the suicide notes, the rusted blades and the bloody hands behind my shady eyes and perfect smile. No they won't. But here i am, my thoughts merging into a perfect sunrise blushing in all its beauty. I look at the mirror one more time and see the girl smiling at me, this time not with mockery but with hope because life has given me another day with a promise of tomorrow.

Read MoreTo my heart,
I'm sorry. I know that such a small word can never make up for everything that I've done. I've been carelessly wearing you on my sleeve and giving you to someone whose love was shallow and superficial and to someone who didn't deserve your love. I've had you broken and fixed so many times only to have you broken again. You've been torn and patched up numerous times, that I've actually lost count. I can only imagine how much it hurts for you each time I add a patch and stitch you up again slowly. You've grown desolate and hopeless and if anyone is to blame, it's me. I've tried to protect you from breaking, from falling into a mess of emotions but you've never really let me help you. Every time I pick you up, I'm constantly reminded of those silent beats we shared when we met someone cute and those silent moments we shared when we missed someone close and the way you throb when you are passionate and the way you dance around in my ribcage when you are happy. I know feelings can be hard. Maybe you are a phoenix and I, the sky. Maybe your wings are broken, but I'll help you fly towards the sun so you can burn radiantly and be born again from the ashes of your existence.

Read MoreTime had wrapped that Pink Box with a fragile layer of frozen dust. The Pink Box which contains bits of my heart. I blow the dust off, open the box and bring it closer to my face and inhale the addicting scent of chemicals and "oldness". It's effect on me is almost instant, engulfing me in a storm of memories and pushing me into a sea of nostalgia. A sea alive with giggles and laughs and tears and burps and birthdays. I flip through each one slowly, pausing to memorize even the tiniest of details even though I won't remember it afterwards. With every flip, I see me growing just a tiny bit. With every turn it's just me, but new somehow. Birthday candles not blown, balloons not burst. Bust in the middle of everything, there I am, smiling a brilliant smile as if I had nothing to care. At that time, I really didn't. But just as I started to grow up, my eyes lost their innocence, my heart, its innocence. Torn poetry, broken hearts and stained cheeks is all I can remember. And as I started to hide myself in words,I somewhere lost myself and left this pink box to the dust. Lost in thought. I didn't realize that I'd come to the final picture. It was me, holding a DSLR, taking a picture of the camera taking a photo of me. I linger on the photo for a moment longer, and put it in the box with the other ones.I'm surprised that there's still place for more. And I have a feeling that it's gonna be filled.....

Infinity
But it wasn't over,
The nightmare,
It never would be.
She would struggle to love, live,
To just breathe...
No, it would never be over.
The monsters she held within --
Restless
Anxious
Screaming for release,
For reprieve.
But it was not to be.
Not yet.

I feel guilty. I know I shouldn't have done what I did. But what Joker told me has put me under the rope. As if I had killed someone, committed a cardinal sin. I don't know who to tell or what to do. And here I am, floating in an endless ocean of my tears, not wanting to sink or swim. I just wanted to see you on the trapeze yet you are relaxing on the safety net. I can only try to tell you, not drag you up because I don't have the strength. I'm sorry if I hurt you. My words are sharp because they come out with pieces of my broken heart. I can't fix it and it hurts to know I can't fix you..............I'm sorry
