A Beautiful Disaster

I knew a girl who once had everything. The world was in the palm of her hands. She was beautiful, she was smart. But then she met you. A beautiful disaster. Her heart would beat to just the sound of your name. She fell so madley in love with you. Just when she thought life couldnt get better it did. But someone could only be happy for so long, at least thats what i learned. The kisses you gave her slowly became someone . The i love yous soonly seemed like lies. The forevers faded into nevers. And the hugs became bruises. The happiness turned into misery and regret. She couldnt leave you though, no not at all. You hurt her every way possible, but with no reason. The days went by, her bruises got darker, the lies grew wider. She lied so much she started believeing what she said. Her family didnt even no her anymore. But neither did she. This happened for months, but nothing changed like she hoped for. Until the day you got put away. And slowly that sad face became happy, she became something she didnt feel for 2 years. She became human, herself. How could this be? I guess you really couldnt see. See not what you did to her,but to me. But you didnt think twice, you wanted me back, change is what you said you did. But a lie i heard a thousand times. And you wonder why i cant come back. But i wont lose myself, not again. Not the same way as before. Your sweet lies, i wish i could believe. But youre just a beautiful disaster, hidden behind brown eyes, and a smile that lies, and a memory in my mind.

its horrible what permanent damage abuse does. I didn't love my ex and feel dirty for even mentioning his name. makes us stronger though and we would never put up with it again with anyone. its great when you realise you are a person worthy of great things and beautiful again :0)

lets think about this, everyone born is born because you have a purpose in life, you wouldn't be here if you didnt, youre not going to know that purpose untill you grow up and is full of wisdom, and sometimes youre not supposed to learn that purpose because youre gone before you can. Some people dont believe i god but im one who does, and i believe that god will put obstacles in your way whether good or bad to help you find your way in life to who youre supposed to be. these obstacles will put knowledge in your head and that knowledge will turn into wisdom and the wisdom will make you stronger. life will be sad, and it will be tough (for sure) but you just have to remember its life and life is never perfect, but that theres always an answer

Sadly we cannot see intent. it's funny how someone can hide themselves right in front of your eyes.Your bruises will fade but even quicker his memory of giving them to you. but repeatedly he will remind you of how you hurt him. soulless devils are among us with the only intention of taking something beautiful and destroying it because its beautiful. He cannot take that which god gave to you, but he sure will try to make you believe he can.
