The Fear is Real
The fear is real
Please don’t hurt me
The fear is real
I’m terrified
The fear is real
He struck me
The fear is real
He’s mad at me
The fear is real
He yelled at me
The fear is real
I stayed out too late
The fear is real
He has that look in his eyes
The fear is real
I’m wearing lipstick
The fear is real
He controls my every move
The fear is real
He struck me
The fear is real
So many live in fear
The fear is real
Domestic violence is a problem
The fear is real
We feel trapped
The fear is real
We can’t just leave
The fear is real
We ran back because we were told lies
The fear is real
Until You’ve Lived It
Until you’ve lived it
You will never understand your fears are real to you
Until you’ve lived it
It’s not real to you
Until you’ve lived it
The hand over your mouth doesn’t scare you
Until you’ve lived it
The fear you will never understand
Until you’ve lived it
The tears in your eyes will never be there
Until you’ve lived it
Your nightmare will never become reality
Until you’ve lived it
It’s just a phrase
Until you’ve lived it
Domestic violence means nothing
Until you’ve lived it
You can’t just heal
Until you’ve lived it
PTSD is just something you don’t understand
Until you’ve lived it
You need to let me speak
Until you’ve lived it
The worry won’t be something you need to live with
Until you’ve lived it
Don’t tell me how to feel
Until you’ve lived it
You will never understand you can’t bounce back
Until you’ve lived it
You don’t get to have an opinion
Until you’ve lived it
Leave me be
Until you’ve lived it
You will never know what it’s like to be a survivor
Until you lived it
