Sadje’s What Do You See? prompt for today is a little dark to me. I shall write a bit of fiction to go with the image.

I did
I did it
I left the jerk
He can’t hurt me anymore
I won’t tolerate his abuse again
I am no longer under his spell
His never ending lies seemed like truth
I really deserve so much better than that
Why did I accept the abuse for so long
I finally woke up when the pain was too much
I will wait here for my rescuer to come for me
My best friend is coming to get me away from this nightmare
I know I can be happy once again with her help
She will take me far away for my own safety
He must not find out where I am located
I must begin a new life without pain
I deserve to be treated with kindness
I want to wake up happy
I need to be calm now
I hope for peace
I am good
I am
