I'M Better Person Thank You

Once upon a time Is that how all story's start fairy tales from the heart not the darkness of fear of abuse from ones we hold so dear the broken promises it wont happen again But it did over and over and over seven years I was the scapegoat for all the bad silly me silly child silly silly man I hid all the bruises and made up excuses as to why I was never seen little did they know you had total control locked away from the world in a tower block I came from a broken home with broken marriages and abuse was the norm I put up with the abuse cried all the tears became a brainwashed automated housewife you used abused and made me worthless once just once you nearly killed me that feeling was so sweet a blackness a darkness a peaceful sleep .................................................................................... little did I know the stress I was under Until I had a fit and was hospitalised I lay in that bed and was able to truly think and clear my head I HAD TO LEAVE I did so about a year later when I found the keys that were always hid
