I Am A Victim

Sadness is around every corner for me. My life has no straight paths. Ongoing images, messages and comments of cruelty drown my mind. I’ve got scars inside and out … I am a victim. The harshness is carved into my life. They follow me everywhere I turn. I try to hide, but I can’t. I am sinking into deep water of cusses, harassment and physical actions. I am trapped, there is only one way out … Dejected feelings are what I’m made of. Even at home … I am still a victim. I am caged with only my life I’m grateful for, and it’s the only thing I have left, besides the curved paths ahead of me. I am a victim, that who I’ll ever be.
