Forgiven but never forgotten

Abused is my story
Abuse is my life

Mentally not physically
He put me in a position where I was hurt critically

Visually I was fine
No bruises no scars
But shivers crept up my spine


My past my present continually collide
I need to hop off this endless death pit of a ride

Betrayal is how I feel
If only I was capable to kill

The way he hurt me can never be fixed
I felt resentment I felt like I was tricked

My future still shines bright
I look in a stranger's eyes and I see light.

I persevere through this pain
Just to see what's left to gain

I've come to the realization we aren't close
I now expose
The foreclosure of my trust.

Yeah, I can relate to this. People often undermine the effects of mental abuse, but it can still hurt just like physical pain. I hope you continue your "way of life" by writing, DeannaK. Based on this, writing helps you to relieve a lot of pain.

It does! This is actually based off of something that was going on with her and I needed some inspiration so she gave me a story and I turned it into this!
