I dreamed I was slow dancing with
myself under a pale moonlight,
as you're shadow watches in the
corner.
Shivers shimmied down my back
as I realized you were watching
my back.
I had to lose you to love myself,
I had to let your memory go
into the passed where you
came from.
I tried surfing your waves but
you kept crashing into me with
no remorse or concerns for
my life.
I was drowning in your depths,
lost my sanity and self worth.
While you lied and accused me,
you left me in the dust choking
on your pollution.
Love, you forgot about me,
you neglected to love me,
you never cared about my
fragile heart.

This is for all the lonely nights I stayed up late paranoid and anxious thinking he was going to come and attack me again. I have to be strong and brave. I have to remember I am safe because he's gone, I got away from my abuser. I am a survivor not a victim. I already was the victim.
