Stop!

stop joking about abuse

it's not funny 

it never was


People think joking about abuse

is funny 

but it's not

I should know


It makes some people anxious 

when you joke about abuse

I can tell you

it's not fun


I've had everything from bruises on my arm

to scratch marks on my face

it sucks

it destroys


But it also doesn't always last forever 

it;s hard to go through

and even harder to overcome

but you can do it


So please stop joking about it

because some people are trying to recover 

I'm still surviving and recovering

you can too
