Relinque Ictus (Abuse)

'Bounce my face off the floor, maybe then you will recognize me'

Burn my skin so you will remember my scream

Pull my hair to feel colors slide between your fingers

Punch me

Make me feel something

Other than a lie you built during the day

Making people believe you are charming and handsome

When the true you is conniving and distasteful

Your teeth are never white,

Rotting yellow behind your pale lips

Your hair is thin, and in places on your scalp disappearing

(like I wish I could)

I dream of knocking you down

And breaking your bones harder than you ever snapped mine

And knocking your teeth out

While I pack my bags and watch you bleed on that new tan carpet you just installed

And even adding an extra kick in the head

Just for laughs.

If I am lucky you will be brain dead,

But alive just enough to where you can watch me live my life fully, loving heartily, And most importantly,

Speak my mind without fear, or your voice replacing mine anymore

The first line is a quote from Sons of Anarchy

I have someone I know that is in an abusive relationship, and is trying to get out. If you know someone, do something!!
