The path that I once took

V-I

He came into my life when I was young,

like a devil who tried to suck the air out of my lungs.

Whenever he misbehaved,

I tried to be brave,

as I am not his slave.

Hoping it to be a nightmare, I cried myself to sleep.

I woke up next morning with swollen eyes and alarm beep.

Looking myself in the mirror, I saw the lifeless me.

Who was once full of life and free.

Wish I could forget whatever happened, as I want the horror to end.

Life is never easy, as the incident left a scar on me deeply,

which pierced my heart and caused my world to fall apart.

This has been the battle, I had with the devil.

I felt the world spin in the wrong direction.

I felt alone and craved for affection.

I did not know how to cope, so I lost hope.
