My heart hurts
a nagging worry in my mind
this is not a blog for those that have triggers please bear that in mind
There are days that my past lays heavy on my mind
I cannot always find the right words to put how I feel or explain what is going on
I have always known that I am blamed for what happened
I was called a liar until he admitted it
I am ousted from your life
I try and fix the cracks but you hate me all the same
although you will never admit it
you said it once while you were drunk
you blame me
it was my fault
but I was just a child
I never stole him
I never led him on
I hated it
I hated him
I wanted to end my life
but I knew I had to protect them
as I knew you wouldn't
you didn't protect me
I tried to make up excuses for you
like you didn't know ...
but you watched him beat me and throw me around the house
and when he told you go you went
and you left me to the worst of him
how could you not know ?
I've never put it into words
I have never let you see
that your words and actions have hurt me
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO LOVE ME
but yet I know
and so do they
we mean nothing to you
neither do our babes
I am sick of making excuses for you
THIS is the bed you have made
I'm sick of broken promises
of fixing their heartaches
you have fucked up just as much as him
let face it
you hurt the innocent
and then rub it in their face
well now I turn my back on you
and I'll protect the babes
Lay upon this bed you have made
and I shall be an
Orphan
Your words are, as always, inspiring. Those that have faced the worst things in life turn into the strongest people in the planet. Look at yourself now babe, look how far you have come. I couldn't be prouder of you. Guilt is a horrible emotion. I feel it every day, and for good reason. But it eats you up like a poison. It makes your stomach hurt and turn into knots, and makes you want to curl up, cry, and scream. You are so brave sharing your story. Those that haven't been through it can never really understand, and will never be able to empathise. But thanks to your words, they will have a chance to sympathise. That is an amazing gift.
