I tremble when you walk into the room. You raise your hand and I wince. I remember what you did to me. Every second of every day; I remember. You don't care for me. You don't love me. You couldn't. And I wouldn't want you to. My life is difficult. Living is difficult. I can't continue life like this; In fear. I can't continue life at all. With each breath I struggle. With each step I struggle. With each word I struggle. I struggle because your actions have left a permanent scar. Not only on my body, but on my soul. I crave for relief. For sanctuary. And I know there is only one way I can find it.

Struggle
I tremble when you walk into the room. You raise your hand and I wince. I remember what you did to me. Every second of every day; I remember. You don't care for me. You don't love me. You couldn't. And I wouldn't want you to. My life is difficult. Living is difficult. I can't continue life like this; In fear. I can't continue life at all. With each breath I struggle. With each step I struggle. With each word I struggle. I struggle because your actions have left a permanent scar. Not only on my body, but on my soul. I crave for relief. For sanctuary. And I know there is only one way I can find it.
