Damaged

I sit and wonder if you ever think about the things you used to say, if by any means do you ever feel bad for the hurt and pain you threw my way.

Does it ever cross your mind that you truly damaged me, if you had looked in my eyes the discomfort you would have seen.

Did it ever cross your mind that your abuse damaged that little girl within me, and with that growing up wasn't easy as ABC or 123.

Did it ever cross your mind what would happen if later in life I ever seen you, did you plot out that lame apology hoping to me it would sound true.

Did it ever cross your mind how you destroyed my soul with your impurities, leaving me stuck through life with insecurities.

Thanks to you my life was totally dark for so long, but I've managed to overcome the damaged me and those demons so now I stand strong.
