Healing The Past

She is sad and frustrated That she got stuck in her head Sitting on the bathroom floor Wanting to purge all regrets She feels like she needs to self harm Still scared of the abuse Feeling like she didn’t have a voice She didn’t get to choose She feels like she can’t break free From the shadow of her father It’s time to escape from the past And live in the moment She’s healing the trauma It’s not going to control her anymore A father should be caring and loving Wanting to be there for his kids But all she can remember Are the horrible things he did Over and over he showed her How a father should never act Making her feel worthless Keeping her trapped But now she, can break free From the shadow of her father It’s time to escape from the past And live in the moment She’s healing the trauma It’s not going to control her anymore She’s starting to feel She can succeed Realizing she Is worthy of life again It’s time to escape from the past And live in the moment She’s healing the trauma It’s not going to control her anymore
