(Name kept private), your words cut like a blade
But the bruises go deeper, the scars never fade
You claim black eyes are not a sign of misuse
Yet your actions betray the truth of abuse
Slapping, spitting, each cruel debase
Leaving a soul shattered without a trace
Controlling finances, a leash on freedom
Isolation's chains, suffocating in the night
You bear the weight of unfounded blame
But truth speaks louder than your tarnished name
In your gaslit gaze, I once sought truth's gaze
But found only echoes of relentless malaise
Your perfection, a mask for the chaos inside
In your words, manipulation and contempt collide
But know this, my spirit won't be destroyed
For within me, resilience will be deployed
I am not alone, I am not to blame
In seeking help, I can break free from this game
Reach out to those who offer genuine care
And know that my worth is beyond all compare
