~a poem~
he told her to leave
she stormed out
without a thing to her name
she didn’t even have time
to put on her shoes
fear followed her
yet she kept moving on
knowing that if
she went back
the abuse would start
all over again
as she sat upon the ground
and pondered her next move
she felt a sense of relief
for she finally was free
from the neverending cycle of abuse
from which she knew
all too well
she closed her eyes
and said a prayer of thanks
and vowed to herself
never to return
again
Until next time, stay safe, and be blessed! 🙂
