"Broken"

Mini Short Story | Fiction | by ReDDVoice

Why me, Lord?...She would ask herself as the bloody tears rolled down the side of her face...How could someone who claimed to love her, hate her so much she wondered...She would yell, but no one ever answered...There was no one else to hear her wolf's cry...

Flashbacks of his fist striking her head over and over and over again...Memories of being choked, stomped and beat as often as he liked...It was like a death sentence and she just wanted to die!...

She was broken! Not only physically, but spiritually...She gave in to his controls and became a prisoner in her own home...She felt trapped in a nightmare...Whenever she would run away, he would always find her...She would return out of fear...Loosing all faith of the life she once dreamed...

Over the years, she had become numb...Soon there were no more tears to cry...It was like a bad love song...One that played over and over again in her head...There was no happily ever after...She knew there was no escape...Her brokenness was a dark shadow that followed her wherever she went...No matter how hard she tried, she knew the broken pieces of her life would never be whole again...
