Abuse

In shadows deep where silence lays,

A whisper lost in darker days.

Memories drift like distant screams,

Haunting the heart, unraveling dreams.

Innocence stolen, a fragile trust,

Buried beneath layers of dust.

Each gasp for breath, a silent plea,

Locked in a cage, yearning to be free.

Time moves on, but the scars remain,

An echo of laughter now mingled with pain.

Yet from the ashes, strength can arise,

A journey towards healing, under open skies.

With every tear that falls to the ground,

A testament of courage, profound.

For though the path may twist and bend,

Hope flickers softly, and love can mend.

So let the stories weave and unfold,

In shared understanding, we find the bold.

Together we rise, reclaiming our voice,

In the tapestry of healing, we make our choice.
