Dear, Mr. Big & Bad

You tried to intimidate me...

With threats so ominous and impending

But dear,

I’ve tread depths of hell,

People twice my age, haven’t glanced at.

I’ve gone to the lowest places of humanity.

Witnessed cruelty so ******

Been hurt in ways, so mind altering.

My natural bend, is a dark one.

My default setting, is a hardend one.

So believe me when I say,

I’ve fought to become the woman I am.

I’ve fought for my life of normality.

And to have a home, husband and a cat,

Is more than what I ever thought my lot in this life would be.

These precious pieces of paradise I would give my life for in a second.

Defend to my dying breath just to keep them.

So darling believe me when I say

I’ve seen scary.

And you aren’t it.

You don’t have his smile...

And I am not intimidated by you.
