Delayed Abuse Poem by Kitti Manson

I'm blessed with this heart,
But its been broken too many times.
Please don't tear me apart,
The rest of this body is mine.

But you don't listen,
And your hand gets brought back.
You say I'll never win,
And you give me a smack.

I'm sorry I'm not good enough,
But thats just too damn tough.
I'm me and thats all I'm going to be,
So just leave, please.

I've taken a stand,
Againts your hurtful hand.
Say goodbye,
I'll never let you see me cry.
