Thunder

Slaps of thunder upon my face
       shades of violet cover my neck
my lowered head falls in disgrace
 Tear stained cheeks and swollen eyes
      i have listened to so many lies in disguise
a broken bone a bruised heart
   why didn't i see it from the start
blinded by the hope that someone could love me
  who you are i could not see
you,ve heard me scream ,you've heard me cry
you didn't care that i wanted to die
            because of you i can not trust ,believe or see
        i am unsure of whom i am suppose to be
i look over my shoulder all around
  so afraid of everything,even just a sound
the bruises will fade,the bones will heal
but the fear and the pain is all i feel
     you took so much away from me 
what hurts the most is you took my dignity..
