Those bloodshot red eyes
bring back my pathetic cries
They pierce through my being
and hold me in my place
fear overwhelming my body
fear, that he'll recognize my face
That moment we stand before eachother
feels unending and seems unreal
I went mind blank, and couldn't identify
what it is I feel.
I never thought I'd see the day
just when all the nightmares subside
The wounds are ripped back open
reminded of shameful tears I cried...

Author notes
This is very personal to me. Just a month ago I was walking from my therapists office and and i ran into my abuser from when i was in the 7th grade. I was already going in a downward spiral of suicidal thoughts. and when i saw this man, who now looked old, i was shaking and in shock. i almost threw up. it litterally was like he ripped open all the scars up my arms. Just when i had finally put him and the memories and flashbacks out of my mind, he shows up. anyway this is personal and i wroe this like 2 days after i ran into him. Im doing ok i was in the psych hospital [for the 4th time in that particular one] but for about a week after i saw him i was a wreck and it affected everything and everyone around me!
