In the Shadows
October 18, 2023
There’s no one watching
I tell myself
I just can’t stop thinking that someone is there
There is someone there
She’s watching
She makes my life horrible
Always pushing me down
Making me do things I don’t want to do
She’s horrible
Except she has saved me multiple times
I should be grateful but I can’t
She made me run away
Everyone I love was pushed away
I couldn’t see myself anymore
I just saw her
She was everywhere
I can’t escape
She’s my scape

Domestic abuse inspired me to write this because it's a difficult thing to go through, I would like to raise awareness about domestic abuse and what it does to a person. I hope that people will better understand what it means to be abused by a partner. In this story, this person is trying to run away from their abuser but they just can't. I would like to let people who are being abused know that they are not alone.
