Jessica Jay Poem
A dark heart took me to a dark place on a dark night
Years spent breaking me down till who I was , was out of sight
I can’t see all I hear is loud screams some of my own
In my mind I am in a field running alone
He, My angel looks at me to take his hand somewhere in the light
But then he smiles and takes back his hand and tells me to keep the fight
His smile so bright it delivered hope
Gave me the strength to survive and cope
Never knew love hurts of shades black and blue
As I lay on the ground getting stepped on like gum on his shoe
My tears were begging god to see me through
I promised if I survived I would start new
Over the sound of insults I am numb
Echoes “No one wants you , You’re pathetic and dumb”
He hated me , I've never seen so much hate
He wanted me to die but who is he to choose my fate ?
I ran though I was weak and full of fear
I saw the devil in his face but I knew my angel was here
I locked the wooden door that was flimsy as I trembled.
A broken woman is that what I resembled?.
This wasn't the first time I was put to sleep in pieces
With a cut lip and a black eye as my heart races
This wasn't the first time I was told I was worthless
Or choked till I was left breathless
But I promise it will be the last, I will deal
I will put my shame to rest and I won’t be afraid to feel
I will work up the courage to look myself in the eyes again and smile
I will forgive myself even if it takes a while

Jessica Jay Poem
I stood there still
Sunset sunrise
Bodies dropped tired
Side by side
I held them up
Who’s behind me ?
I can’t see
Can I fall now
I’m too weak
I took a chance
I hit the ground hard
I guess no one was behind me
All I felt was knives that stabbed deeper
The cold floor
Concrete
Blood .. Red as a rose
My own
Now
My lips are blue
And my heart is ice
Punished?
eyes blind folded
Arms cuffed
They send me on my way
Through filed of thorns
Broken glass
Bare feet
I cry no more
I feel no more
I hope no more
From the cold
I am numb
And though I am numb
I can tell you it’s the worst type of pain
To feel nothing
I poke at my heart
To see if It’s alive
I breath
I survive
Whispering prayers under my breath
Screaming silently
Till there is nothing left
Save me lord
From those who take but never give
From those who look but never see
From those who hear but never listen
And though I feel dead inside
I live
Lord save me from Me
