The Unsent Letter

I am trying to hold back all my tears, While writing to you about all those abusive years. When did you decide to turn into a monster? You treated me as a prisoner, who was captured. Sitting, here I try to make sense of all your heartless actions. Your hatred towards us was unscrupulous and devious. Although I tried my best to be an obedient and loving wife, You cut my heart into pieces let it bleed, and almost end my life. I had to endure so much pain and suffering, I prayed for an abrupt ending. Many nights I contemplated taking my life and committing suicide. But then I realized I could not be selfish like you, I have to stay alive. My kids need me, my sweet angels. Who also have to endure your rage, to see it was very painful. You thought we will end up on the street, When you stole my house to get married. Finally, my voice is free, that is why I am writing to you today. To tell you, for all your evil deeds you will pay. Although you will never read my thoughts, This unsent letter represents my unspoken words.
