I'm begging you to leave
For I can't take much more
My life has been destroyed
Since you walked through the door
I've lost all of my control
You've taken it away
Yet I still can't let go
I need you every day
My loved ones have left me
No longer wanting to compete with you
They really don't understand
The things that you make me do
I can't decide for myself
I don't know which feelings are real
Only your firm hold
Can help me to deal
You've broken me down
Now I need you to go
So that I can stop hating myself
For sinking so low

I know exactly what you mean. Not all bruises can be seen on the skin, no one can ever know the power of the mind controller unless they have been there too. No one can understand why you can't walk away, you can't function without them - or so they have made you believe. It took me over 40 years of marriage to realise that I wasn't the coward but it was too late. For reasons I can't go into here I have to live my life as best I can with someone I am still slightly afraid of, though I could never explain why, it has been years and years since he used physical violence. I hate to know of young women who are stuck where I have been because you can manage on your own, when you are young enough to have a new life. He won't leave, he is the one who can't survive without you. Don't leave it too late like I did and waste your life.

I thank you for your comment! I actually got out a few years ago. Noone understands the strength that it takes to leave or the brainwashing that is involved! I am now with a wonderful man that treats me like a princess! Every once in awhile he pays the consequences for my past and I feel really bad about that but he is completly understanding and deals with my moodiness, insecurities, and nightmares like he does everything else, WONDERFULLY! Thank you again for your comment and I'll be praying that you, someday, find the happiness that you deserve as I finally did!
