Dark space

Broken down with words 
Always trying to please 
The keeper of my heart 
Now filling up with rage 
But love can soften the blow 

You created this dark space 
But I don't have to live 
In the shadows anymore 

Broken down piece by piece 
Always gathering nerve 
The guard in my map 
Clipping my wings 
But love can soften the flurry 

You created this dark space 
But I don't have to cover up 
All the bruises left 

Broken down in spirit 
Fear consuming me 
When you are too tired 
To fight back at all 
But love can soften the roar 

You created this dark space 
But I don't have to bow
With my head in shame 

Never feel alone when you are in an abusive relationship. There is someone to hold your hand and guide you into light. 

From the heart
