Dying Inside

The life i left behind...

 

Shivering, shaking, so cold inside,

Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide

Feelings of sadness, fear and hate,

How did I get here, how can I escape?

Kind eyes and warm smile, is it you I see?

Hands wrapped around my neck...I can hardly breathe

Everything is alright, it will all be okay,

Head on the pillow, tears fall, can I face another day?

Heart pulled apart, torn and shredded inside,

How could my eyes have been so blind?

Love a distant memory, control is here to stay,

Gotta be strong for the kids, fight for another day.

Shivering, shaking, dying inside,

Still nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

Gotta stand up girl, power is yours to gain,

Its time to take control of your life again,

Get out that door, then run, dont turn around,

You dont need this girl, happiness can be found!

Walking, smiling, sun shining down on me,

Opened the door, never looked back...Now Im FREE!!

Sumptuous imagery, and delicate descriptions as sharp as the brush tip of a watercolourist.

the ending is the best part. the beginning is so sad, I was hoping that the writer would shine a little light and you have, it's beautiful.
