Stop the abuse

 

 

Her eyes were lying
Hiding the fact
That she was angry all the time

The pain of a lifelong of abuse
Cannot be erased so easily
Time heals but too slowly

Her smile was deceiving
Hiding the fact
That she was hurting all the time

How can she believe anyone?
When she was betrayed by the ones she trusted the most
How can she rely on anyone?
When they abandoned her at her time of need

Trust is a mirage
Love is full of betrayal
Dependence is just another deception

All she has
Is faith in herself
Hope in her heart
And the courage to move on

Her eyes may be lying
Her smile may be deceiving
It may hide the sadness of her heart
But her resolve is strong
