Dear ex abuser.

It’s been along time see I have seen you last not even in my dreams. You can’t hurt me now but that doesn’t mean I don’t feel the pain. I can’t sleep like I use to, I can’t be held that one way. I can’t have my wrists touch and I refused to get underdressed in from of my fiancé. All because of you. Here I am 3 years later. With a baby and getting married you still linger in my thought consoling never helped no one knew the existence of it either. I know you can’t touch me but when I see when I visit home scares me to death. I know what your capable of. I see you where I live now every once in a while that smile when you see me that glare you have. Lingers in the back of my head. I can break free from you. The nights you got high and leave marks unseen the words no one heard. And here I am 3 years later. I never got to say thank you for finally leaving thank you for walking away. Because now I’m a little stronger I’m getting married to a guy that treats me right I have a beautiful daughter that makes me smile. I never have to deal with you again. This is me finally letting go and breaking free.

- from the one the couldn’t get away.
