I won't be broken down again
I can't be swindled and burned yet again.
Keep yourself together yes,
Guard the broken off pieces of yourself
Lest you lose them all over again.
Take me away from these
Haunting memories
Nightmarish flashbacks,
Where the walls are always caving in
And he is always there
Forcing himself inside of me.
The darkness is always so
Comforting, until
He emerges from the shadows
With that voice of his
"Shut up."
"Don't move."
"Don't tell."
He drowned out my screams
With a whip of his hands
Used me, hurt me, lost me.
Didn't even bother to
Cover me back up, or even to
Wipe off the blood trickling down me.
