You Can.

poem by: Elizabeth J White
Written on Apr 24, 2015

You woke up today battered and sore, you want out so badly and feel you can't take anymore.

You look in the mirror and can't stand your own reflection, the one who was suppose to love and
protect you, abuses you, calls you names and is anything but protection.

You have tried to plan , but have your doubts, you think your gonna leave but think
there is now way out.

He has spit on you and makes you feel worthless and no good, but please don't believe
your not dead yet, so for yourself don't grieve

Start planning, and thinking to your bright sun shinny days, don't think I can't, think I can and you'll find away..

oh he will have the times he may cry and say he won't do it any more, oh but child how many times has 
he said those words before.

Good things are in store for you, There is someone, who will adore you.
There is laughter ahead and joy too
there is a life, awaiting , it's true.

Stuff is not important, you can leave it all behind, take what you feel you must, things you'll aquire in time.

You may not know anyone, That's ok, just have a plan, instead of thinking I can't I can't, just say to yourself you Can!
