I'm telling you,
that if you feel an inkling that they are violent,
they make you scared,
they threaten you,
isolate you,
if they will love you to death
and not the romantic sort of love-you-to-death,
the scary, dark, horror-fueled death,
the one that makes your hair stand on edge when they enter a room sort of death,
leave you walking on egg-shells death,
their voices are glass covered in glitter death,
if they are your father, mother, step-dad, sister, best friend, roommate
anything or more,
leave.

They aren't worth your life.
Please, if you know of anyone experiencing abuse in ANY shape or form, make it known to the authorities!
A lovely, young, beautiful friend of my family was murdered today. Jodie was stabbed to death and left behind a beautiful daughter and husband. I can't imagine how her mother is coping with the loss of Jodie, she was an absolute ball of light and hope.
This is for Jodie.
I hope you're having a glass of prosecco up there.
