The tears blurred my vision as I tried to hide
Hide from the past that I hated so much
Hide from the man that had caused this pain
Hide from anyones, everyones touch
Sobs of sorrow escaped my throat
Trying to run, i just stumbled instead,
Thinking of the man I had thought I loved
Thinking of the times he forced me to bed.
All the times I had needed to talk
He hadn't cared, shrugging me away
And all the times I had wanted to leave
He grabbed my arm and forced me to stay.
Every time after being with him
I spent the night crying in bed
Thinking of the man I thought I loved
And thinking of the terrible life I lead.
The cheating he had done behind my back
I dont know why i chose to forgive
Those eight different girls he took to bed
Looking back, how can i possibly live.
The child in me started to grow
When he found out he was quite upset
He made an appointment, forced me to go
killing the child I had never met.
The three years of hurt, the pain, the sorrow
The little girl I had even named
The child I had grown to love
The love that made me ashamed.
When I moved we just broke up
And he took all the gifts that were mine
And I cried and I asked him to stop
But he said I would be just fine.
But now I must move back
To the place of sorrow and pain
And I'm afraid I might still like him
And afraid that I might be insane.
And I pray for strength and for courage
To stay away from such terrible men
Even though he might say he is sorry
I know he'd just do it again.
Please tell me what you think

I am so sorry for all that pain, no one deserves to be put through so much anguish, a lifetime of bitter memories but alas the tale is true throughout the world of stories such as this. Strength of will to not go back to that hurt you must show. Indeed a painful throbbing throughout this poem. God bless and take care.
