Relatable


I'm watching this trial How abuse can turn out I see the pain in the person's eyes And the little laughs that come with telling the stories And that laugh is because you can't imagine it happening to you and you telling the story I felt it.... I could relate Hiding the truth Coming up with lies Hoping people would believe them Being to scared to reach out to anyone about what I was going through To scared to leave the person .... Everything I'm seeing and hearing from this person... I can relate... As I watch this with my mother I feel this weight on my chest I feel tears forming in my eyes I can't tell her I can relate ... I can't tell her what I went through I can't tell her how I lived for two almost three years All she knows is I left the guy The relationship just ended like that ... It's all relatable... The lies The scars The mental, emotional, and physical damage How I had to creat a whole new person to hide the person I had become Relatable I'm sorry you are and had to go though all this....

My work goes with the beat of how I feel to when I remember a memory I want to talk about it to random thoughts
