Don't break my heart

Sometimes I see the ones who hurt me in my eyes,

I fear becoming them, beneath my own disguise.

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


Distance myself, so you don't see,

The pieces they left, inside of me,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


I'm barely alive, breathing each day,

Trying to revive, the fallen day,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


Sometimes I scream, but no voice comes out,

Sometimes I cry, but only b.lood spills out,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


Feel I deserved the pain, they were right,

Words of them, haunt me at night,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


I'm barely alive, breathing each day,

Trying to revive, the fallen day,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


I see the shadows, touching my heart, so bold

Only to break me apart, leaving me cold,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


Holding on tight, to what’s left inside,

Fighting the pain, with nowhere to hide,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.


I'm barely alive, breathing each day,

Trying to revive, the fallen day,

It breaks my heart, please don't break my heart.

@Stormandshelter This is such an amazing poem. It's a big fear that we might become the same as the people who've hurt us in the past. We dread looking in the mirror afraid we might see them lurking in our eyes. 

You don't deserve the pain. And you are not their words. Who you are is who you choose to be. Their words don't define you. But I do know that the wounds from someone's words stick with us for years

Sending peace to you Storm

Thank you for your kind words. Sadly, I'm struggling too much but hopefully I won't see them in myself someday. I don't wish to be like them..

@Stormandshelter I think the fact that you don't want to be like them is what makes the difference. Abusers never think that way. They justify their actions or make excuses for the things they did. They lie and deny everything
