Battered Bruised Tattered Abused Staring out through a sea of tears Wasted by too many years Pain too much to bear She no longer cares Who am I She asks herself Long ago She was put on a shelf Identity has been all but lost Shes paid the cost Lost herself in a mans arms Believed lies meant to charm No turning back the hands of the clock She'd better run and not walk Her strength has left her like a whirlwind Too late for her heart to mend Can she ever be free from this world of fear Will the way ever be clear Gotta go Before it gets too dark to see Gotta go Before he gets to me She tells herself these things night after night But shes too beat to put up a fight. |

I feel so sorry for her, fighting her demons so, but with hope and love, she can conquer him and conquer all! Well written  There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Isis has a point. We all have demons to fight. The key is to let loved ones in to help you fight the battle. Draw from their strength. daniel |

My heart has broken for so many women who realize, sometimes too late, that they "believed lies meant to charm." However, there are life lines if one just reaches out for them. Well done. |
