I Have a Scar

I have some scars on my thighs, but I have one scar greater and deeper than the others. I'm not sure when it will heal or if it ever will. This scar is embedded in my heart. It grows by the day. I have been stuck living with amazing people but a person I can only describe as evil visits everyday. I want to feel safe in my own home but I don't think I can. He hurts my mom, physically and mentally. He hurts me mentally but I fear one day it may be physical. I try to escape but I can not. I have no money to leave. No where else to go. I try everyday but my attempts fail. With every failure comes a deeper cut. With every cut I lose hope. The only one who keeps me alive is my love. Because I know one day he will have the means we need to save me from this place.

But until then my scar will grow. My heart will ache. And my hope will fade.

I am sorry. It sounds like you're dealing with a lot. Being stuck like that is slow death, I grew up in an abusive context and my mother didn't do much to help me.
I think it is best to count on yourself in providing a long term plan to live else where. People can disappoint you and you have so much to lose in case that happens.

@SomeMichGuy I was able to get a job months after this post. I saved up and after a year I was able to move out. I still see my mom and she is still with him. She refuses to call the police on him, she’s threatened it but won’t ever do it.
