After darkness,
always comes the light.

The darkness is
where I’ve lived ever since they took me all those months ago. Dragging me into
the shadows to play their sick and twisted games. I don’t know why they took
me. They talk about an eye for an eye, but I don’t know these men. How can I be
punished for a sin I know nothing about? A sin I didn’t commit.

Until him.
He blazed through my
darkness like a lightning bolt, shining through the void of nothingness. He was
a force to be reckoned with.

They thought they’d

did. And now, my life will never be the same again.

They think they’ll
break me.
break me.
They think I’m weak.
An eye for an eye
they said, but this isn’t my atonement. How can you pay for a sin you never
committed? A sin, the depths of which you know nothing about.

When will enough be
enough?
enough?
For eight long,
torturous months, they’ve used every evil, fucked-up trick in their books to
make me crack and splinter. But I’m not made of glass, transparent and ready to
shatter. They think they’ll crush me, but I’m already dead inside. I died on
the day they took me, dragging me into the shadows to play with their demons.
I’m not even fit to have the title of toy like the others. They call me the
dog, but if they think I’ll ever be loyal, they’re wrong. I have teeth, and
when the time is right, I’ll bite back.

As children, we’re
foolishly told that sticks and stones may break our bones, but words will never
hurt us.

Take my body, abuse
