Abuse Will Not Define Me

by Baby Rainbow   Jul 10, 2012


There's so much more than meets the eye
to what you've done to me.
There's so much more that's still to come
of the pain you've caused for me.

There's so much more behind my eyes
that people will never see.
There's so much more to my broken heart,
all the pieces that you stole.

There's so much more to all this pain,
so many things I can't forget.
There's so much more to every scar,
the secrets remain untold.

There's so much more to being strong,
more than what people think.
There's so much more to who I am
and abuse will not define me!

    So sad, yet so true.

    The abuse we receive not only scars are physically but mentally also, and those scars can last a lifetime.

    I like that at the end, you have come out fighting: 'Abuse will not define me!'

    There are ways to turn the abuse into something positive, even if it still remains within our minds and haunts us. We can help others and make a positive impact.
    As long as we think positively, and don't let depression take hold, it can be overcome.

    A few typos to make note of:

    Third stanza, first line;
    'theres' should be 'there's '

    Fourth stanza; third line;
    'mroe' should be 'more'

    Remain strong and determined and you can beat the darkness that the abuse brings forth.

    Excellent. 5/5
