His Breathing

by Samantha - Scorpio

He ended all my wanting
My needing for peace
He ended all my hopes
And all my dreams
He was a friend of mine
Too good for any harsh names
Took me for granted
Never knew I'd fight back
I gave up everything
I had no control anymore
I believed what he did
Didn't know if I was strong enough to handle it
Didn't learn until I was forced, how strong I can really be
To wipe the tears from off my cheeks
To get up from off my knees
To fight until I would bleed
Many nights, I'd lie awake
Screaming out what he did to me
Every shower I took, I'd feel his touch
Every scent I smelled, smelled like him
Every pain felt like a knife
The sight of him, caught me off gaurd
I was alone in this world that I had created
My walls of protection had been knocked down
I couldn't fight it
But I had to
Was forced to fight it
To fight the aroma
The sight
The touch
To fight my thoughts
His breathing
And eventually, my dreams all came flooding back to me.
