Inside

My mind is scrambled

I hear mumbles in the shadows

I look round and round

and see nothing for hours

my heart feels numb

my heart feels pain

why does he still do this

have so much power over my brain

I cannot move, I cannot speak

all I can think about is how he used to hit me

and now all I feel is weak

you think nothing of it, as if it were nothing

but it's burned into my soul

leaving me so cold and broken

today was good, today I felt okay

I hadn't thought about it once 

not a single time today

then we pasted the place 

where it started it all

where I became broken and out of place

but who cares at all

everyone's moved on an forgotten

while I'm still battered and broken

but you just don't understand that at all

Sounds painful. I hope you feel better.
