-
Broken and bruised I stand before you
Tattered and split I held my heart in my hands
Turning blue and cold my eyes focused down
My heart hardening to my soul
Broken and bruised I stood before you
Words spoken through a damaged heart
Feelings of a wounded soul
A broken heart and a twisted mind
Twisted through the lies of another
Broken by the actions of the other
Cracks in desperate need of repair
Blemishes and no one cared
Cracks along the surface travelling deeper than most can see
If you look correctly, you could see right through me.
You've seen right through me
And I can't deny
That these feelings are truly mine
Not needing to hide or to find the right time
These feelings are mine
What a wonderful thing
When you can let your heart sing
The sorrows of the past and the joys of the future
Makes you think that there might be a cure
For the tears that have been shed
It just might be worth the hit
Because I know when I open my eyes
These feelings are truly mine.
Beaten down and battered
Words condemned me and now liberate
All it took was an emotional quake
Brief moments of panic and pain
All needed to keep me sane
At least I once thought...
My vision is clear
The end is not near
For me but, for you the end is here, I fear
So, my dear
Expelled from my life
No longer can you cause me strife
Your words hurt like a knife
And choked me until there was no life
Now my vision is clear
And my end is not near.
I stand here licking my wounds
Battered and torn
Broken and bent
Tattered and shred
Sewing myself together with needle and thread
Finding warmth to bring the pink to my lips
Sailing your ships
No longer wanted, no longer needed.
Broken and bruised I stood before you.

- Title: Remainders of a Wounded Woman
- Artist: Svetlanakai
- Description: I was recently in an abusive relationship and the relationship left me with nothing. I felt like I needed this guy and I couldn't see how bad it was until it was over. After the relationship I wasn't myself anymore and I have to build myself up. It's been a little over a month and I've been talking with someone else but, it's so hard to let him in when I'm left with these scars.

- You have a beautiful way of describing the pain of being in a abusive and toxic relationship! I thank you for being so strong as a woman... and revealing the "Evil" truth of such relationships... I hope you stand tall and strong! I know there is someone perfect for you somewhere out there, but for now be patient! God bless you.
