Hate Grows Inside

Wrote this for all the people that get abused an any way!!

All of my life I have been accused

All of my life I have been used

Every day I was beaten and bruised

And there was no one there to help me make it through

 

I wish I was there to save you

I was too late,

Now I live with so much hate

I’ll always carry the blame

And live with the shame

 

Can you forgive me?

I mean it with all certainty

I want you to have your fantasy

Live in your memories

And I’ll take away all of your misery

So that you can live in peace

 

I wish that I could go back in time

And change your whole life

Maybe then you would be alive on the inside

And not so broken on the outside

So I set your misery on fire

 

Day by day

I live with this shame

The hate grows inside of me

As the misery I try to take

I was too late to save you

But now I am here to help you make it through

 

I hope you know that I will never let you go

I will give you ever ounce of my hope

Just so that you can live on

I want you to know

That I will never let you go

And in my arms is where you always belonged

beautiful write. Not everyone can escape the abuse they are being dealt which is very sad and inhumane, but it happens. It's a terrible experience being with a monster verbally or physically. good poem :) even in all its darkness
