Still Living With YouA Poem by DreamyFeelings left over from an abusive marriage.
And so, I write this to you: When will I stop looking for you, every time I leave my house, Thoughts of pain inflicted, by you, my spouse. When will I stop worrying, every time I see a car, that looks just like yours, reminds me you are never very far. Will I ever stop checking, all the locks on the door, and before going to bed, checking them once more. When will I stop jumping, everytime the phone rings, wondering what hurtful words, your phone call may bring. When will I be able to let go, of the memory of you, along with the bruises, came the emotional pain too. When will I stop being scared, at every noise I hear, sitting straight up in bed, one hand catching my tear. When will I feel safe, and stop looking over my shoulder, The scars never go away, but they continue to grow older. When will someone listen, to all of us that cry, before its too late, another woman must die? Please leave me alone, I want to live, after all you've done to me, that's the least you could give. © 2009 DreamyFeatured Review
