Letter To You

Letter to you,
you who created this hate that grows inside me daily
you who ripped away my innocence and left me with the fear of asking someone to save me
you who left me so messed up I couldn't even help myself
you who melted my memories into the tears that tread my face
filling my heart with hate for you,
you who left me in this darkness
blanked in the reflections of my sins
trapped in the stories of my nightmares without sight of an end
lovelessly caressing me with your lies of loving me
pleasing yourself with the indecency of almost destroying my dignity
but you couldn't break me
you could abuse me mentally but you could never scar my spirit
so I consider your mental bruises as nothing more than beauty marks
that trace my mind with our history
entwining with each other poetically teaching me how
to forgive you,
you who left me this woman trapped in a girls mind frame
tired or a world you made so mundane
trapped in a body you made an alien to me
with my soul beating at my chest
needing to burst free
so I write…
to you
and my words fill out my paper
with the curves you always said you wished belonged to me
and each letter
each sentence
cascades freely from my pen tip to make you see
as I see
feel
as I feel
every time I look in the mirror
and see the surreal world you created in my eyes
yes
you scarred me deeply
but you could never cut deep enough to scar my spirit
you broke my angel wings
but you could never break me
I am still able to soar over the lakes of my melted memories
cause you were never worthy enough to break me
