This Relief is Stained in Blood
10 years looking over my shoulder
Never Knowing If my time was up
Your sister wrote no one knew how to love you
As If there was more that I could have done.
Our love never ended it shattered beneath your fists
With each bruise another shard scared my soul
Your love came at the price of my life
I could not pay
I would not pay
I left, everyday afraid you would demand payment
10 years in fear
They say I shouldn't care
But love does not leave
Those shards remain
Scars upon my heart
This news
You tried to contact Me A month Prior
An Add to be friends
Did you think I would accept and all would be better
I could forgive you for the transgressions upon my life
Even If I could forgive you
I could not risk my life
I made it so you couldn't find me
To Save My life
But I didn't want it to end like this
I wanted you to drop the bottle
I wanted you to be better
It was never going to happen with me there
You Didn't get better
If I accepted would you still be alive?
Is a Life in fear worth your Life?
Rest In Peace
My Abuser
