Desperately wanting the nightmare to end.
Unable to heal,
Unable to mend.
Repressed pain of the past,
Comes to haunt me at last.
My sanity sinking,
And I’m tied to the mast.
Never asking for this.
I was given no choice.
Abused and disposed of,
And left with no voice.
Stripped of trust.
Deprived of self worth.
Locked away in my own,
Private hell on earth.
I need to get out.
I have to break free.
But it all seems so hopeless,
Because I can’t find the key.
