Sonnet

I never thought you could hurt me so bad 

I thought you were the only one for me

That was before you got upset and mad 

Now I know it was very unhealthy. 

When you called me those names I had to go

But then you pulled me back into your arms

I kicked and I screamed and I yelled please NO

Now all I am left with is scary scars.

I was broken, sad but now I have grown

Into someone that I am so proud of

The abuse that now I have overthrown

Fuck you and fuck that, that shit is NOT love. 

To anyone in need of some solace

Speak up, say no, you can do it- promise!
