"abuser" poems
Lairs twist life so it's tasty to the lazy Powerful to the weak and crazy Brilliant and seductive to the ignorant youth But even in pain, there is beauty in the truth Even a tiny bit of deceit is dishonorable For only cowards lie selfishly without preamble As lies only strengthen a liar's defects A liar's character, mind, & spirit gains no positive affects The abuser of the truth paints with disappearing colors Valuing the canvass at worthless dollars For once the veil of the facade is lifted Honesty, integrity and trust can never be re-gifted. Unhappy are the takers Or why else be fakers? But to devastate the essence of the believer Measures the cruelty of the deceiver Inner peace with self deception Is the doing of one's own soul's destruction However if truth be told When lies gradually unfold, Is it better to be the believer Or the deceiver?

Abuser
I truly am pathetic. But not for the ways you say. For the way that I let you tear me down. For the way I said it was my fault. That everything was my fault. In truth it was yours darling. But I thought if I blamed myself, then you wouldn’t be hurt. That you would feel better about yourself. And you did, But I didn’t. Now this is what it’s come to? You, writing these spiteful lies you call poetry? Now you’ve become pathe- No… I can’t speak of you this way. I never could. I always let you hurt me with a smile on my face. I always blamed myself, though that was not the case. I should have said something. Stood up for myself. But I didn’t want to hurt you, Make you sad, Make you feel the way I do… I just wish That these people, The ones who read your poems Knew the whole story, My side of it. The side that makes the ****** the villain That makes the abuser, the awful, disgusting, worm of a man, just a sad, lonely and broken boy, willing to destroy himself to see his true love happy. But words are powerful And hers may be better than mine. If so then my story may go untold, Unbelieved. But, believed or not, The truth must be told I will no longer be that pathetic, submissive soul, but instead an instrument to show the truth A lens of truth…

Pathetic Me
If you go down to the woods today You're sure of a big surprise If you go down to the woods today You might even meet your demise Because today’s the day they all have their picnic. Every last one who's been cruel to you is sure of a treat today There's lots of innocent thoughts to ruin and many dreams crush Anywhere possible, where nobody sees they'll taunt and slice as long as they please That's the way they all have their picnic Picnic time for them all They're all having a lovely time today Watching, waiting for the perfect time... They see you gaily gad about You loved to play and shout You never had any cares But at six o'clock your Mummy and Daddy can't take you home at all 'Cause all you are is their dead little victim. If you go down to the woods to day, You better not go alone. It's alluring down in the woods today, But safer to stay at home. For every bully or abuser or hater or cheater ever there was will gather there for certain Because... Today’s the day the ones that ruined your life will have their picnic...

Funeral Poem
Lost in the land Of pretending to be grand Saving their conceit For their nearest and dearest Every malignant narcissist Has two middle names: One is "Abuser" The other is "Slanderer" And they live in the shadow Of a deep, unbearable shame That makes them shameless.

it does not matter if you're male or female in the mind of a abuser they will always prevail. when you allow the abuse from the start in you life, it becomes a part. whether it's verbal or physical, it matters not you let it start, and it won't stop. the verbal can be more damaging than the physical because it becomes daily. like a sculptor chipping away at its mold until it becomes the way that they want it to be. and if you don't stop it you will never be free. they do it because of their own inadequacy. which is something that their mind won't see. how much abuse should you take before it becomes much to late? the verbal abuser will always put you to the ground and expect you to not make a sound. they will tell you that you was put here to serve. and to make a move, you have no nerve. that you must obey their every command and that you are the **** of the land. if you have no - or low self esteem it is something which will be seen. and when an abuser has you in their sight no matter what you do, it won't be right. STOP the abuse, before it's too late. for this can not be your destined fate. the verbal abuse will always start first then from there, it will get worse. YOU must walk away, so that they can see a victim you will not be. (abuse is like a broken tool, it could damage whatever is good)

the abuser
my friend said she’s Quirky Angsty And different She’s not she’s insecure And I don’t mean any offence bu that statement But she thinks the chains around her neck make her appeal to her abuser And the fact that she’s never, really, properly drunk and yet pretends she’s wild and has lives lives she hasn’t She says “ if you ever need someone to be a crackhead I’m right here” She’s not She’s insecure She has sisters I have brothers And although we’re no longer defined by genders I think we are now She wants to be like her younger sister But she’s not popular like her She lacks for charisma But is sweet and kind She thinks “cage the elephant” is indie music And thinks listening to the strokes makes her cool And that turning of capital letters on her phone somehow makes her “not like other girls” She’s wrong I don’t do any of that **** and I don’t pretend to be quirky, angsty, and different And all the boys prefer me. And yet I’m insecure She should go back to fan-girling over Shakespeare And writing books and poetry for fun You’re not Quirky Angsty And different you’re just insecure Ok yeah good. ? ! Got it perf. Vibes. Cool,,, lel!’v

Quirky Angsty and Different
she always told me "try This" "try That" she constantly wore a blood alcohol level that defied mathematics. and bore eyes red as a painter's canvas; but a smile she would paint onto her face putting the final touches to her masterpiece. she always told me Try This Try That reassuring i'll be fine regardless if i get hooked, or not. she was Perfectly Drifting away unaware i was already hooked to the most powerful Drug of all right in front of me.

THE ABUSER
Sometimes a man find himself encased in a total stare. Memories of the abusive one whose aggressions he could no longer bare. No one would listen because of the fact that he is a man. Nobody cared to go to his defense nor tried to understand. The gender card was exploited and always on full display. Lies held against him will always be until his abusers dying day. Hurting inside because the man forever lost a child. The abuser stands by watching with an aggressive smile. The abuser never cared about nothing or the damage she caused. She was more concerned about the good image to be lost. What his child look like today the man he just cannot say. He finds himself stuck with the image of yesterday. His abuser has purposely torn away parts of his heart for many years. His eyes has never dried up from the many tears. Avoiding the abuser this man had to be the one to pay a lifetime price. Escaping the claws of the abuser the child became the ultimate sacrifice.

dear abuser,
he Was an abusive man and led her by the hand Took her to a room and beat her till she was black and blue In fear she didn’t know what to do , so she called the ABUSIVE HOTT LINE – they told her to come in and she’d be fine. With this group there was no hesitation They filled out the reports and took her to the police station. A restraining order was filed to protect her and her child. He had done this many times before and they let him walk out the door. No others had filed charges against him and he’d walk out with a grin. But with her he could not be within fifty yards Otherwise he’d be charged. The ABUSIVE LINE is open to everyone Don’t wait till they have a gun. The abuser wants to be in control of your mind, body and soul. To them it’s the greatest power to control your every hour. And put fear in your mind and keep you meek so you stay in line No matter where you live you will find an ABUSIVE HOT LINE.. Reach out while you can and get yourself a helping hand. © L . RAMS 041415

abusive hot line
Everyone's out to outdo everyone else It's not even about meaning anymore It's how much press coverage it gets Whoever makes them "just" statistics And there's no fantasy draft yet Somewhere alone in his dark place Ruminating his environment Some bedwetting, fire starting, animal abuser Infantilized by the hatred of maternal instincts Projected on him De-evolved He likes the way she hurts him She abuses open hand words or clenched up fists of embarrassment It just fuels his homicidal tendencies His brains on the hate frequency And he's ready to let the fantasy slip Home is where the heartless host absence of emotional ghosts the boy the man the monster He lost it Family annihilator, He took his mother out last So she'd suffer through the destruction of the ******** Her wasted wish of abortion'd children. This was before the news vans This was before the first respondents This was before the society outlash Back to him alone in a dark place In the depths of his disturbing mind He sets higher stakes.

All The Best Psychopaths Have Mommy Issues
Anorexia was the most attentive Girlfriend anyone could ask for And I fell hard for her I fell for for 500 calories a day, The sense of control it gave me Compliments from girls I'd never talked to before Doctors so pleased that I was finally "healthy" That feeling, Of stepping on the scale And realizing that I took up less space Than when I'd stepped on the day before The feeling of water hitting an empty stomach The hunger pangs That secretly thrilled me The thrill of the lies The ones that became ever so easy To slip off my tongue The thrill of a secret love affair with death I fell for an abuser I fell... Literally Bruises lined my body From bumping into walls Because my body was so Malnourished I couldn't Walk down a hallway Fell down a rabbit hole- Fell down into a world I couldn't escape- Thigh gaps, thinspiration, tips and tricks to Hide this wonderland in your head Walking headfirst into Anorexia was like walking Into a haunted house It's fun and exhilarating at first It's a game, it's harmless And then you realize that the doors Are barred and it dawns on you That ringing the doorbell of death Was not the best idea I am a study in skinny does not make you happy The 5 pounds you wanted to lose Turns to 10 Turns to 20 Turns to... I am a study in Every inch of your body being a warzone Of standing in front of a mirror Seeing nothing but a piece of meat Taking up too much space I am a study in calculation I am a study in lying I am a study in not dead, but not alive I am a study in starvation I am a study in falling out of love

It burns your parents They weep and wail They lost their child They're sunk into a sea of sadness They read the note They beg dear god above " why were we not enough? " Who did you shoot? Your brother's chest He's staring silently At his sibling's dead body As he stutters and sobs He wonders " why was I not enough? " Who was stabbed?

The family you left behind Your uncle is silent Your aunt is shocked Your cousins, your grandparents They cant believe it " why were we not enough? " Where is the wound? It bleeds in your friends' hearts No matter how many you have Or rather had They can't stop crying They can't stop thinking " why were we not enough?

One day, I will find you, And I will scream; A child's words From an adult mouth. I will make you quiver With the same fear You instilled in me Since I was three years old. You will not Be able to run. No hiding allowed in this game. Just take it. I hope you cry Silent cries; Of fear and abuse, Betrayal and torment. And while you cry, I will stand over you, Shaming you, With my hand over your mouth. Be good for once! Be good! You're bad! Always bad! I will make you feel A child's pain. I will be in control. You will not have the last word.

Letter to an Abuser
I want to be a substance abuser. I want the vapidity of my own words to evaporate. I want the void to rev itself up, and spin itself into a voracious tornado. I want to extinguish the emptiness with this epitaph. I want language to bend to my will, leaning and looming as an entity of entirety. If I should be so lucky, I hope to die of an overdose. -LP

Substance Abuser
You silenced my voice for all those years, left me with scars and a face full of tears - and you took me to a place that was the definition of Hell; I spent each day living a nightmare that suffocated me well. All the while my soul was blackened by the darkness of the evil acts placed upon me; I became a wreckage and all that was left of me was black debris. I waited for an escape and freedom as the survivor and accuser; but I was merely a prisoner of my childhood abuser. Now I'm like a daisy growing in the cracks of a pavement; growing despite you keeping me within enslavement. I've risen like the fire that ignites my bones; and my eyes are no longer dead but shine like gemstones. I am no longer the broken girl I was back then; I'm stronger, wiser, braver - and I am whole again.

Strong in the Broken Places
I'm not your prodigal son; I'm your abandoned daughter. Don't wait around for me to return. I won't. I gave and gave because I was a child Hoping for love I received conditionally. When I stopped giving, you left. That says more about you than me. You worship a God in your image. One who asks for all. You say he loves unconditionally, But that's what you said about you. You worship an abuser, And in his name you abuse. You pray for repentance But are unwilling to change yourself. I know you miss me. You want me back so I can give, And a part of you really does care. Your actions matter more. You could love me again If you wanted. I haven't hidden myself from you. I'm still here. You can't expect me to come Crawling back to you. The fattened calf you'd offer only If I approached on your terms. That's not the forgiving father. That's a parent still grasping For control of their child. I don't need your food. If you wanted to learn, Maybe even consider You could be wrong, I might call you again. You won't even use my name. Like the neighbors of your savior, You say, isn't this our son? I'm unwelcome in your home. So I've finally done it. I did what I knew I had to. I shook the dust from my sandals, And I left.

Look at you Look at what you've become You think this is happiness Her under your thumb Her resolve breaking down The parts used to fix your life Her medium of release The blade of a knife This is abuse In its emotional sense Using sadness and anger to manipulate and hence It doesn't take much To bring a state of vex This relationships a cycle Of pain and *** *** only providing a temporay relief Before our eyes are opened To the strife and grief Yet she defends you Once said its problems at home With each word in your defense I think Stockholm, Stockholm Since her resolve is crumbling To ashes and dust I ask myself whether its love or lust Lust its loss A fear of losing control Like you did with another Like you did as a whole Thats why she"s your second Thats why you're with her A girl who never argues Retaliates or infers So you can remain in control Keep her in a drone like state Where her spirit is in your hands Where you decide her fate So I write this poem with the hope That she will find That a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind
