~Tormented~

I was told on a continuous basis I would never amount to "SH**

a poison I have lived with reinforced with an iron clad fist

to hear your own mother's voice spurting such vicious discontent, to feel her inward rage slamming upon you with no remorse or sentiment, detroys the very fiber and essence of your innocence

yes! like many I was a victim of circumstance, flogged by the bitterness that consumed her contempt, yet I refuse to append, stood by her side till the very end

abuse of any kind is only a fragment of the destruction of man, this poison seethes into our very heart and soul then brutally expands

it creeps into our relationships spreading its deadly disease, maims, murders, lies and cheats, leaving us all to grieve

it tears away our foundation and strips away the core, leaving us emotionally, mentally and physically dismantled and still it begs for more

I came into this life through the vessel of a woman filled with hardship and rage, I've lived the majority of my life trapped in that same cage

from a wounded child, battered, beaten and bruised, I emerged lifeless, emotionally and mentally confused

as I looked beyond tomorrow my thoughts were not clear, for today I had lived a thousand yrs.

as I transcend from the world I once knew, I strip away all the tragedies I surrendered to, now on the eclipse of a dawning new day, I can see beyond and find my way

I understand your pain and the journey you've been on, its hard to let go of a worthless cause, when it hits so close to home

but the hunger in me to survive was my means to escape and I refuse to allow the storm of life to seal my fate

the battles in life are not always fair, at times we feel noone else cares, but the struggles we all endure are happening everywhere

in those silent moments when your pressing in despair remember, God knows and he always hears our prayers
