Darling please believe me when


Darling please believe me when I say

if they tear you apart

if they hit you

scream in your face

tell you you're worthless and your past is a joke

it's not Love.

Love is kind and forgiving

it's sweet and gentle

it does not hurt over and over

it doesn't need to be won over

it is only be understood

When she came to be and slapped me in the face becasue she was in a bad mood

When she made me cry and laughed

that was not love and darling it is not for you

the face of abuse does not have to be big and scary,

 it can come in a tall fair skinned girl with short hair and a beautiful laugh

beauce abouse will nerver make sense

but love will

love is kind and non-judgementful and darling oh darling it is sweet

love is loving and does't have to say sorry for its actions becuase they speak volumes on there own

so darling hold my hand, walk with me as I tell you of loves embrace

leave the cold heart of pain away for love will accept you at every turn

darling love is waiting, go to it.

Georgia writer with a somewhat hard past trying to write it out and make sense of it. I have always loved to write and my favorite is when it has passion and emotion.
