Abused
I was abused
Only five years old
So very confused
It's a game
We will play
Shh. Don't tell anyone
He would always say
I was abused
Only fourteen years old
Still so confused
Mom was so cold
You slut. You whore
Sleeping around
My heart is sore
I was abused
Thirty three years old
My whole person, bruised
A mom to six
Twice married now
I will be a good mom
I made that vow
It's quiet at night
The children all Sleep
I lay in bed awake
The fears flood, I weep
Today the sun shines
I awake from laughs
My beautiful children there
I am not my past
