I wish so much I could go back in time.
So that I could simply change my mind.
I know about everything I said before.
But I don’t like it this way anymore.
The dreams I thought finally came true.
Lied to me …… when it came to you.
Take me back to my yesteryear’s.
As I wipe away these wasted tears.
I wish so much I could go back in time.
So that I could simply change my mind.
Everyone deserves a second chance.
To experience for once real romance.
I no longer see the sparkle in your eyes.
They are dark and clouded by constant lies.
I know about everything I said before.
But I don’t like it this way anymore.
No longer is there a charming smile.
In its place comes abuse for the longest while.
The dreams I thought finally came true.
Lied to me …… when it came to you.
That warm tender touch is there no more.
The back of your hand sends me to the floor.
Take me back to my yesteryear’s.
As I wipe away these wasted tears.
Simply my Thoughts

And so on a quest for that which you may not otherwise have, a cloak is drawn over the truth. The pain and heartache that are promised cannot be seen. Yet the inevitable is undeniable and even more so without rhyme or reason. When the damage is done and another life torn apart if not lost forever you drown in self-pity for a brief moment while you contemplate the pursuit of your next victim. They say that abuse is passed down from one generation to the next. Much like excuses for any and all other failures encountered just blame it on your parents or how you were raised. Surely the majority could understand. Yet you are the first to stand tall claiming to be your own man. If causing pain to another is being a man then surely the true definition you failed to comprehend. If you know of someone that is abusive and you do not intervene, you may as well be the abuser yourself. If in your delusional state of mind you think that hurting someone else makes you a better, tougher person why then would you feel the need to conceal the evil deed? You know as the majority that it is wrong and no one has any real respect for anyone that abuses other people of any age or gender or animals for any inexcusable reason. Until you come to grip with reality you will forever hide your true self, and never know or even understand true love or friendship. Abuse and bullies in any form are as pathetic as it comes. I’m proud to say this man has never abused, never will abuse, and will always be a strong advocate against abuse and bullies.
