Fire breathing venom, spews out your blackened heart,
searing, burning, scaring souls, with lies that you impart.
Mental, emotional, verbal lashes brand our,
fragile minds.
You smirk and turn your back,
while lies and truth entwine.
blind leading blind.
Or not?
I see.
I see the path to freedom, one you did not choose,
I’ll no longer follow your lead, to a dead-end of abuse.
I’m not you,
I’ll never be, I know you cannot see.
I shake the dust from my feet,
and choose a different way.
It’s a harder path,
Yet
One that
Sets
Me
Free…
There is hope!
