I once felt
so failed,
I once felt
so alone,
I wanted so
badly to scream,
Praying that
I’d wake from a dream
I tried to
tell them,
I tried to
show them,
I tried to
make them understand,
The pain I felt
at his hand
I was
ignored,
I was dismissed,
Disregarded,
And left
unguarded
So I did my
best,
I tried my
hardest,
To survive,
Whilst thinking
I’d never thrive
I ran,
I cut,
I fought,
And through
all that time he was never caught
Although I’m
stronger,
Although I’m
happier,
It hasn’t
stopped hurting,
And there’s
every chance of it all reverting
All the
wrong people,
Say all the
right things,
Whilst the
right person,
Still has
the power to make everything worsen
There are
things I can’t change,
Things that
will never stop,
I accept this,
To avoid the
abyss
And although
it calls,
And beckons
me closer,
And the
numbing is so appealing,
And the darkness
is so unfeeling
I can no
longer hide,
I have to
follow the light,
I want to
keep up the fight,
And now I know,
that this is right
