"do not let him have you" i begged.
the tears in my ears as salty as salt and
the cuts in my heart deeper than oceans
"do not, for one second, let him have the power to rip your heart out of you and abuse it like it is his own toy" i begged. again.
you stood still, the cold breeze dancing along with your hair and your eyes droopy as ever.
i don't think that in that moment you knew yourself, nor do i think you had the capacity to.
my heart sank at the sight. i couldn't stand the way someone stripped you of your smile like it was nothing, let alone the way your soul stopped living to feed into someone else's selfish and ruthless needs.
at some point, the trees stopped moving and the world started spinning as slowly as the speed of the torture you were put through.
i whispered, i begged, i cried and i tried everything i could to stop him from having you as if hurting you was his birth-right.
and as much as it pained me, i came to realize that no one could protect you, not even I.
yet, still, i beg of you... do not let him have you
