Still

I still hear your voice

When I close my eyes

When the light hits the blinds.

I still feel your hands

When you held me that night

When I endured as you drained my light.

 

Sometimes the light slips back

Others, I'm once again plunged into the dark.

It's so easy to forget about you,

Act as if your sins weren't true.

 

But then you show your face again,

Slithering like the snake you've always been.

You sink your teeth in, and once anew,

I start seeing the world in two.

And as the light leaves my eyes

I hear the echoes of my cries

I feel my skin against the tiles

My toes go numb as you hold me down

There's an endless ringing of your lies

And I want to tear my skin off as I break down.

This is so eloquent and so powerful. I'm so sorry for what was done to you for you to feel these words in your heart. Sitting with you if okay.

Thank you @rabbitprotectsme. Sitting with me is always welcome.
