I smile to hide the pain
To look like i am fine
To be strong for you

I cry when I am alone
When noone can see me
When I am in darkness

I harm myself to avoid all hurt
To get rid of this mental pain
To avoid the tears from falling

I drink to avoid the truth
To feel numb
To forget myself

I didn't say
I was scared
I was hurt

I am scared of darkness
Feeling as if I am not safe
Dreaming of my past

I am scared of life
Feeling suicidal, depressed and hate
Not showing the pain I feel

Hurting myself to feel better
Not sleeping on a night
Hating myself

I am scared of you
Your in my nightmares
My flashbacks and my memories

You haunt me in my mind
You scarred me mentally
You made me hate you

My abuser

this reminds me of myself 2 years ago. I'm glad you shared. I know your pain.

I think it needs some punctuation in some places. I remember awhile ago at another place I was told just because it is a poem doesn't mean it shouldn't have punctuation. Since then I've decided I rather like adding punctuation where it seems to fit best.

Otherwise, the message is clear, slightly over used, but it probably has a special personal touch to you. Keep at it.
