I'm young but i feel old.
I'm smart but i feel stupid.
Being trapped and used.
Day in and day out.

Trying to make things work.
Moments of success then failure.

My surroundings feel cold.
I fall in love but automatically cheated.
No excuse for my being abused.
It's prolonged; No timeout.

Kept alone to quiver and lurk.
It's cold and dark in my cellar.

Time goes fast as I grow old.
Day after next I'm recruited.
After my beatings you're amused.
Hell becomes my next route.

This is a poem I wrote in 15 minutes. I came to me fast because I put my self in the shoes of someone who would be in this situation. THIS ISN"T TRUE...SO DON'T REPORT IT PLEASE.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
