Through the Mirror

Trapped with no way out

It's just another Wednesday.. another night, another hour, another moment. In a year from now or even a week for most this day will not matter nor will they remember it. For me though I will remember every second, every small detail, every word said. Every. Detail. However, this Wednesday is different. On this day I'm turning 16 years old. That's right you read right I'm turning 16 and all of this is still happening. For 8 years now he has been doing this, nobody knows still. You may be wondering how do I hide all the bruises, the flashbacks, the nightmares from my family... well you see I have my secret which I have spoken of before.. it's actually very visible if you just take a look.. If you were to walk into the hospital room I am in now you would see my arms covered in bandages from my wrist to my elbow. See now you know my secret.. I have done soo well at hiding it all these years you would probably have never known, except the only difference was that day I didn't stop... I didn't know how, I just wanted all the pain to stop. I guess while trying to make it all go away you could say I went too far on "accident". But, what if I told you it wasn't an accident... that I really did mean to go that far. Would you look at me and say I'm a freak or would you cry out to yourself or to others why didn't you know, what could you have done to stop it from going this far. You see don't blame yourself... while yes I blame you for not stopping it and for all those days you bullied me at school for wearing long sleeves and bracelets, ultimately you aren't the main cause. Sure you played into all of it, but, the only one I blame is... Him.
