tw abuse
The story
a poem a wrote to my stepmum who abused me
Dear abuser,
How are you able to sleep at night?
After what you've done
All the anger and pain you've caused
The things you put me through
Dear abuser,
Are you happy now?
Breaking and bending teenagers spirt
Leaving wounds deeper than skin
Dear abuser,
How can you live with yourself?
Forcing teenagers to run away as their only other choice was death
Mentally and physically injuring them in the process
Dear abuser,
Does it feel good to get your way?
Is it everything you wanted?
Was it worth all the pain and suffering you caused?
Dear abuser,
I hope your happy now
I hope it was all worth it
The pain you put me through hasn't broken me
Dear abuser,
I know you will never get what you deserve
But this is my way of getting justice
I hope you read this one day
And realise its about you
Dear abuser,
I hate you.
Yours truly,
A survivor

Thank you for sharing this I’m sorry you had to go through what you did but I am honestly so glad that you survived despite all the trauma you went through
thank u so much for the support I've been free from it all for 2 years
i just read your poem and i gotta say: it's really heavy stuff it gives this vivid picture of the emotional turmoil and the trauma that goes beyond just physical scars... hope you've found some peace despite all that and that writing this was cathartic for you in some way... ❤️
Thank you so much. I have been out of that house for 2 years
