Dear Love,

They made me live

and for a good reason,

because you told them to.

I didn't know 

it wasn't you staying away,

it was her,

your stepmother,

the hooker

that your crappy excuse of a father

married,

she told you to stay away

and threatened things,

that were even more creative than your fathers threats.

I'm so sorry.

I thought you hated me,

I thought you wanted me gone.

I didn't know that they threatened

to kill you mother,

and to kill  me

and to kill you.

I didn't know.

But,

now I do.

I promise 

that I will protect you

once I'm better,

once

I can look myself in the eyes again,

once I'm me again.

I'll kill them

if they ouch you,

you don't deserve this,

no one does,

but why,

why does it have to be you,

just why?
