#dontstandforit

He hits you But he loves me.  But he hits you?  Yes but he gave me a home But he hits you. But he has provided me with open arms The same arms that he hits you with? but it’s different he does it for my own good. 

Yes but he hits you? he hits you? That’s like watching him stab you in the heart whilst he tells you that he loves you. 

Love: Love does not strike across the face, loves does not scream in your face, love does not entitle or endure pain,  love does not envy, love does not demand of you, love does not make you feel worthless, love does not make you wonder if you’re good enough, love does not leave you in the corner of the bathroom attempting to quietly sob, suppressing the sounds of your tears as silently they trickle down your face. 

Love does not bleed on the scratch beneath your chin that he left there after you tried to break. from. his. grip. Stop. making. excuses. 

Love: Love is when your heart can not describe it but it is something close to happiness and yet something so much more than happiness. Love is when they hold your hand purely because they want to, love is when you feel the sun sink in your skin, whilst you smell the essence of the grass make its way to your nose. Love is the smile on your face, love is safety, love is equality, love is unconditional, love is painless, love is knowing you aren’t perfect but accepting each other for every bump and imperfection. Love is so much greater than the excuses you believe, love is so much more than what they have given you;

What they have given you is the destruction of you and you must not stand for it.
