PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

This poem was written about the many women struggling with abuse issues from growing up in a tainted world and how it leads them into self-mutilation where most people would feel pain, but they feel release because there is no other outlet for them and they embrace death to be away from the internal destruction killing them daily.I have to defend the people who chose to take their own lives. Sometimes, being alive for people is worse than being dead because of the inner turmoil eating them alive, abuse inflicted upon their bodies, and they torn apart souls. I'm sure if women and men felt there was another way to survive from their depression/anxiety they would take it, but to them this is their reality and it's their only way to be free from abuse.
