When I was a child
You hurled insults at me
Reviled me
You call me weak
Do you even remember my name?
When I was older
I knew why you you insulted me
The need to possess or control
Was an all-consuming hunger
You wanted my soul.
Now you don't even care for my attention
When you were in college
I was a distraction, a means to an end
The way to get what you needed
Do you even remember I exist?
Now I'm older
My scars no longer burn
The pain is still fresh though
It forms my whole being
For though I have been
Slander and abused and
Taken advantage of
I survived
I'm stronger
I will go on
