truthful nightmares

you haunt me while I sleep

I see you when awake

you say not to tell

my innocence yours to take

I hear you in my head

your voice is too familiar

I cover up my ears

your words are too peculiar 

you act as if nothing happened 

the pain is all to fresh 

days go by day after day

you feed my crawling flesh

your abuse is very wrong

although you do not see

I hope the day will come

the one that sets me free

although I hurt a lot

I still go through the day 

showing that I'm fine

my feelings hidden away 

I stay awake at night 

afraid to fall asleep 

my life will never be the same

my trust is hard to keep

writing this was fine 

but strong with defeat 

ask me any time 

my feelings are discreet
