Are These The Words?

Broken, beaten, betrayed, deceived,

I realize how wrong I was with every breath I take,

You weren't what you appeared to be,

You were a mistake.

 

Are these the words to describe,

Someone I have loved forever?,

But I was tricked, fooled,

I don't want us to be together.

 

I was caught up in that fantasy world,

In which you reside,

You tried to change me to fit your wishes,

To all my loved ones, I had to lie.

 

I lied about the bruises and the scars,

That seemed to appear out of thin air,

With each lie I felt more and more pain,

I then knew that my life was going nowhere.

 

Broken, beaten, betrayed, deceived,

These are the words that once described me,

Now that I left, my life is better,

Finally, my strength is all I see.
