Those 6 Years

Well were do I start
Anyway here goes with why my life fell apart
I was 20 years old and bang at the drink
Getting with bully's and barely time to think
I always thought bad boys was cool
And bad boys was great
But believe me for the next 5 years 
I just felt like bait
I always got put down with evil words
But back then I never even cared
I was always used as a punch bag
But I never left and that's what is so sad
3 years in I had a baby 
So I thought the beatings will stop , maybe
6 years on I finally left
I tried so hard to put them years behind me
And I tried my very best
The hardest part of it now is the scars what he's done to me
There not just on the outside what people see visually
My head shot through and I felt so alone
Then i met Mikey and if it want for him
I believe the rest of my life would of become unknown
I'm now able to think and able to love
With Mikey beside me I'm starting to look above
He's shown me real love and now I feel free
I'm just learning again , about me
Me and my little girl are now safe and well 
And living life to the full 
That's because there is no more dull
The pain has stopped now am not with that whopper
And looking forward to my new life 
With Lara and Mikey
Were gonna smash this good and propper.
