Because I had to be
By Sinfulangel
I am strong because I had to be
When "Uncle" used my four year old body for pleasure
I am strong because I had to be
When my stepfather administered his "punishment"
I am strong because I had to be
When my mother sold me to the man in the hotel room
I am strong because I had to beĀ
When kids at school labeled me as odd and different
I am strong because I had to be
When I was rejected time and time again
I am strong because I had to be
When my father ignored my pleas for help
I am strong because I had to be
When my husband drank and got mean
I am strong because I had to be
When the man I loved threw me down the stairs
I am strong because I had to be
When my son looked to me for guidance
I am strong because I had to be
When my sister died
I am strong because I had to be
When I was pushed aside over and over
I am strong because I had to be
When I caught my husband with another lover
I am strong because I had to be
When my mother finally passed away
I am strong because I had to be
When I am treated like something to be used and never loved
I am strong because I had to be
When will it be time for me to be weak?

Its tough being the one to be strong. Because when you want to be weak no one around is strong enough to hold you up. Know this all too well. Thank you for putting this into words.
