Poetic-Verses
'' That Reflection Is Me '' HOPE
When you look in the mirror who's that person in there,
I can hear you saying you don't really care,
why are you suffering after all these years,
those thoughts of abuse still bring you to tears.
The very thought of it still makes you cry,
you feel you're responsible you wish you could die,
you were but a victim your dignity taken,
by a beast whose morals they had long forsaken.
This is an issue society has fudged,
the innocent victims are made feel they are judged,
though you are the person who's truly affected,
the abuser is the one who is then protected.
You were the innocent victim of a heinous crime,
yet you are the one still doing the time,
while the abuser moves on you're left standing still,
but this need not be if you show you've the will.
It's now time to live life tie your flag to the mast,
no blame lies with you so you must bury that past,
you did nothing wrong that you must know,
if you start to believe this your spirit will grow.
Your life will be yours without being a chore,
discard that guilt now and forever more,
I would never suggest that you'll ever forget,
but you did nothing wrong you should have no regret.
When you reach your goal I think you will find,
you will start to enjoy life you will clear your mind,
that's when you'll really start to believe,
there is nothing in life which you cannot achieve.
So pick yourself up from the depths of despair,
it's a known fact that life isn't fair,
when you feel like crying take appropriate action,
by defeating your demons you will gain satisfaction.
You're no longer the victim you'll have won the right,
to be who you are now the end is in sight,
though there were times your life was rotten,
those terrible times can and must be forgotten.
Though the abuse you suffered tortured and burned,
Your image will say to you at last I've returned,
when you build up the courage to set your mind free,
You'll take pride in saying,
‘' That Reflection Is Me ‘'
