Next time I will not care about

the man who abused me for 21 years

next time I will not fear the

man who held me hostage for 21 years

he beat me with a bat which was meant for a ball

my arms left with scars

and belt marks all over

I keep having a dreaming about him seeing from across the road

but yet again I will not fear the man who abused me

for 21 years
