Ashe Kristy De La Keur Scoville Poet I do not know?

Many Questions

Why did I cover up?
Why did I stay so long?
Why did I not leave after the first punch?
Why did I take all those beatings?
Why did I not walk out the door?
Why did I ever sleep in the same bed with him?
Why did I ever allow him to touch me after those brutal nights?
Will I ever be able to give my whole heart?
Will I ever find true love?
Or am I just meant to be alone?
I know I made so many mistakes.
I have so many unanswered questions.
I just know I am tired.
Tired of being thought of as a victim.
Tired of people thinking I am nothing.
Tired  of being invisible.
Tired that I don't matter to a single soul.
I will move on this I know.
I just wish I had answers.
But I guess we all do I am just one of many................
