Do I fear
Or do I hate
I hate that I fear you
I fear the blow
I hate the fear I show
The satisfaction in your face
The love you show
When you raise your fist
To my body
I wait for the blow
but ..why are you waiting
The sick twisted fantasy
That you just want
To come to life
But with me here
I might be letting you
Play the fantasy
But how do I fight back
I fear that I hate you
I am scared to hate
Just as I am to love
If I hate then that makes me like you
At least to what am told
So do I
do i hate or do i fear you

Very strong write.
WELCOME ALEXIA ~Thanks for your first poem ~ which is very confessional ~ i trust you found it cathartic. As we look back on ou lives we all remember abuse (so we are empathetic) and how we responded to it. Perfect love casts out fear ~ my response was always LOVE and it made me stronger. As you say HATE only makes us worse and ~ like our abusers. You will find MPS a very supportive site ! Thinking of you ~ Yours BRIAN (UK). Please check my poems ~ Thanks B
