Recovery – a poem

he hurt me and buried the old free me till it burned

but silence screams louder than any voice I’ve lost, my dreams were uneasy and my palms were sweaty while my mind was filled with thaughts of rage and hate.

He shattered my trust with a deep cut and let it twist like an unfaithful lover, his hands were unkind, a thief in the dark with a terrible dark mind.

no mercy, no pause, no love just a boy wanting his desires done.

I tried to scream but no sound came out as I thaught i was screaming without a doubt no but all I was doing was screaming in my mind the words combined, I was alone stuck against the walls feeling dull and suffocated.

My soul stays sore my mind says pause, all the thaughts were put in a locked door.

He was just a boy but boys destroy, a moment a future a girl, a toy.

I carry the weight on my back and the world hasn’t changed but my mind is.

They tell me to heal, they’ll say take ur time to recover but they’ll never say, are you okay and you shattered. a crime I don’t really know but it has no arrest.

this home isn’t a place where I feel safe anymore, it’s not a place where I feel like I’m okay anymore,

I am feeling tore I am feeling like I’m drowning without the water I feel like I am shattered without the glass but who is to care ?!

so be aware of the boys that shatter be aware of the pain and the way boys can be, remember you matter
