_{I always felt like I belonged to the moon, shining down at the vastness of the galaxy. But today I learned not all fantasies are meant to come to life. Some are meant to be destroyed… wiped out… crushed and sent into the ocean with no one to remember.
It’s all because of one man, you.

I’m the kind of gal that takes things with a stride. Flowing with the tide and not letting anything crush me. Until you broke my resolve, you slid your claws between my shells and sank them into my heart. You were my kryptonite, without common sense and wisdom to lead me I fell within your gaze.

I freely gave you all of my heart, baring my soul and my very core into you. Trusting that in the end you would never let me down. But the thing is, you were nothing but the scum of the earth, created from the darkest and coldest pieces of hate and disdain. One who hates his very existence tends to treat those around him like it is entirely their fault.
That burden collapsed onto my shoulders.

For five solid years I embraced your scorn, with black eyes and broken ribs, with early periods and screams from the unspeakable things you do onto my body. But I fooled myself into believing that you did them because it was your way of showing you loved me, that you needed me. So I endured day after day after day of your violent assaults.

Until finally I was completely destroyed, broken into so many pieces I was no longer even in sight of the moon, but locked in a windowless dungeon with the darkness as my only true companion. I doubt I will ever understand you, and why you did these things, or why you hate yourself so much that everything in the world that crosses your path should suffer.

All I know now is that I don’t belong to the moon and that I can never shine down at the vastness of the galaxy ever again. Because today I learned that none of that truly existences. That everyone, everything is meant to be destroyed… wiped out…crushed and sent into the ocean with no one to remember.

And I know now, no one will remember me…}
