Extremes


When it was good, it was amazing. 
When it was bad, it was horrid.

Everything Was Nothing


Everything you ever accused me of
was just a give away for yourself

Every lie to told me
Was just a lesson

Everything was nothing
Words lost all meaning

Coming Out Of The Fog Of Abuse


He tried to kill my creativity by controlling and manipulating me.  He also discovered that he could get what he wanted out of me without hitting me.  He still smashed things and intimidated me so I could see that it would turn into one of those relationships where he would only hit me, probably once or twice a year, just to keep me in line.  The rest of the time he could control me by isolation, jealousy, fear, threats, manipulation and lying.  I am breaking free now.  He did not succeed.  I am free to be me and to be with someone who celebrates all that I am.  Abusers try to crush your spirit, they try to break you down to where you don't even know yourself anymore.  It's all about them, and they will drain you dry and then yell at you for not ever being enough to fulfill their own emptiness. 

Living With Your Anger


"Anger is nothing but a defense mechanism for the hurt that lies underneath of it".
