Every Detail..
Why does it hurt, cause so much pain?
The minute, I'm right back there again?
The tears and the sorrow from what you did,
Why didn't you realise, I was just a kid?
Flashbacks, Nightmares, 'Triggers' as well,
As I relive it all, in every detail.
I don't understand, don't think I ever will,
You hurt me so badly, against my will.
You were the adult, I was just the child,
Your treatment of me, wasn't mild.
You beat me, abused me, raped me many times,
From justice here, you didn't even get fined!
A short prison sentence is ALL YOU GOT!
A lifetime of grief, that's my lot?
A sound, A smell, A raised voice or two,
Reminds me off, my past with you!
Once I'd escaped, I thought I was free,
But! the pain of your treatment, is always with me.
I can't live free, can't enjoy my life,
Cause the pain and the sorrow, cause to much strife.
On the good days I laugh, the bad days I cry,
I'll bet now that your free, you don't wonder why?
Do people know, who YOU really are?
As you talk to their children, from your car?
Do they realise, the danger their in?
Because your heart and soul are full of sin!
I pray that your dead, and can't hurt anymore,
I need to know now, that's for sure.
'Cause the Flashbacks, nightmares, 'triggers' as well,
Cause pain to me, as I relive the detail!
