A Lesson Learned

A lesson learned about my being in bad relationships

 

L ife taught me many things as I have become a true survivor

E arly on I should have known the signs of an abuser

S ignals that warn you ahead of time

S hould I have had to learn the hard way

O nly time would tell as I lived through my own personal hell

N o one could reason with me I had to learn for myself

 

L esson learned through the school of hard knocks as they say

E ach and every day as I lived in a world filled with fear

A n abuser had me under his control almost destroyed my very soul

R ealized one day I didn't have to take it I didn't have to stay

N o more would he be able to treat me this wicked way

E nding this cycle of abuse was not an easy thing to do

D ecided to leave after he nearly killed me this is a lesson I learned

Lessons learned late are better than never learned at all. Some lessons are easy to learn.. some take longer to learn because the human heart and soul. Each piece always wanting to see the good in people. The hope that lives inside is always hoping for a change, a change for the better so that the current situation will not continue. Only some refuse to change, stuck in their own abusive way. The only way to survive is to find the strength to move on.. The strength to break the vicious chain and cycle of being abused day to day. Sometimes it takes a major event and a sense of self preservation to find the inner strength to break away.. to face the fear and walk away.

A great write to show what a person can go through in an abusive relationship. As they say better late than never!
