Listen to me; get your hands off her! i will scream as many times as it takes; she is scared, scarred, by your so called “love”, by your very own hands.

It doesn’t matter whether you didn’t want to, nor that you regret it afterwards, every time, because in the end, you still do it, again & again, and I pray she will stop forgiving you this time. She deserves a love that is gentle, not painful. Love should never hurt this way. So, let go, let the fuck go of her, if you have any pride. And never, never dare to touch her again.

Im happy we met

The Man Sleeping Next To You

A night stand gun cabinet Next to the bed A bat by the door A knife and vibrator Pillowed under your head I'm a nightmare away From waking up dead But what's there to do? I won't deserve it But neither did you

You're still checking the locks Again and again So I've learned what it meant To let me come in

-Me H.

We can speak of trauma when that system fails: when you beg for your life, but the assailant ignores your pleas; when you are a terrified child lying in bed, hearing your mother scream as her boyfriend beats her up; when you see your buddy trapped under a piece of metal that you're not strong enough to lift; when you want to push away the priest who is abusing you, but you're afraid you'll be punished.
