Description Tell me, my dears, 'cause I can't comprehend,
Just why is this the lie that we can all understand,
Who the hell has the right to say we're less than?
In a world unforgiving of the smallest imperfection,
Those bastards beat down those who need our protection.

Nothing can cure the mental disease,
Forgive this victim her cruelty, but
Can't we just leave them to die?
I used to love and I use to try, but
They have no conscience anymore,
The heart beating in his chest is a lie.
If it could just end, if he could be gone,
Even the monster might somehow be free,
And how much better off she would be.

But precious ones, hard as it is to make of it an end,
And, please don't mistake the words of your friend,
You already know you're the one who let it get so far.
Without your consent, they can't break who you are.

I beg you to fight, I know that you're so much stronger.
Believe in you, like you know I do. They beat you down,
Still, there you stand, so don't let him hurt you any longer.
Take it back. It's your heart to give.
Walk away. It's your life to live.

Please, why don't you listen, baby,
When they say he's no good for you?
Why? You can't find the self-worth
To say that you're through?
Please, just stop doubting,
Just don't listen to him shouting.
Can't you hear us screaming,
The ones who really care for you,
"Don't let him tell you what to do!"
His cruel words will never be true,
Because we love you.  

And you, who never had a chance, had a choice?
All heaven and earth knows that I bleed for you,
And I would gladly be your voice.

Listen, my angels, shattered souls near and far,
Broken bodies, wings and spirits so blood-stained,
Trying, failing to hide how precious you really are.

This definitely hit something with me. It reminds me of my Mum and a few friends. When I found out about how Dad used to treat Mum, and I saw abusive relatonships on the TV, I thought it was a adult thing, but it's surprisingly and sadly common among teens ):

Loved it though. Your writing is always amazing

(I'm slow to reply sometimes, ne? *sigh *) I was kinda going for impact...so I'm glad, I guess. But yeah.

As soon as I realized what was going on in my life, I started figuring out just how common it is. I wish writing this alone could make a difference.

It can't, of course. Words alone don't have that kind of power.

I know it's small in the grand scheme of things, but hopefully it'll at least get some people thinking.

Thank you.
