Click hereI’m worthless, no better than dirt.
You remind me this so many times
Every day, in so many ways
Just so I won’t forget.
Just when I think you are through
You start all over again,
To see how far you can grind me
Down this time.
When I confront you about this
You start yelling and twist my words.
Tell me you never said those things,
Trying to make me look stupider than you
Think I am.
You yell at me and tell me
You hope I can’t read someday,
Which either means I’m blind
Or I’m finally dead.
You’ve never been this mean
And vindictive before,
But your temper is changing.
I actually flinched this time,
Instead of standing ramrod straight to your harsh words,
Because I thought you were going to hit me.
You have to be the almighty man,
The one always in charge.
You almost have me believing
That I’m worthless,
But I know I’m not.
Underneath this hard shell
That I now wear,
Buried deep,
So no one can see,
Is me.
Last night I felt the shell crack,
Just a little bit,
But a big enough crack that can
Be pried open and the shell
Left behind.
The old confident, sure of myself me
Will be exposed, never to be
Hidden away again.
If you don’t like this me,
The me that you married,
All those years ago.
Tough shit….
You will never walk on me again.
I can only pray this was inspired not from the authors personal life experience. There is a place in hell reserved for the character that is written about.
than you ever thought you could be. They fear strength, it makes them feel small. Get away as soon as you can and dont look back. Im still working up the nerve to do it...so I wont sign my name, but I wish you the best
the ones who belittle and abuse others. It's difficult, but you have to break the cycle and stand up for yourself. Very sobering piece.
Mental abuse can often
be far more damaging than
physical abuse and extremely
difficult to walk away from.
Well done for touching on
such a difficult subject and
for doing it so well.
thanks.
