HOW?



How can I see the truth when my eyes are swollen shut from my tears?

How can I hear your pleas to leave him when there’s a ringing left in my ears?

How can I scream for help when I’m mute from being choked?

How can I act like I care when my heart has been stabbed and broke?

How can I convince you that I don’t have a choice in this anymore?

How can I get you to understand that if I leave him, it’ll be the last time I walk out that door?

How can I explain to you what’s happening to me?

How can I let you know that even though I don’t’ want out, I do see?

How can I talk to you about this when I know what you’re going to say?

How can I show you that I’m so scared all I do when I go to bed is pray?

How can I get some help to get out of this?

How can I deal without ever having his kiss?

How can I accept the fact that even though I don’t want to, I do have to leave?

How can I get over him without having to grieve?

How?
