Abuse Me More

By Jae B. Wells

 

You flop on the couch, refusing to clean.

You won’t even put your own clothes away.

You declare, “You can work a third job.”

I’m also in college full-time so I’m suffocating.

 

No matter what I do, to you I am worthless.

I break my neck but still it’s not enough.

You snark, “Don’t like how I treat you? Leave.”

But, I have no roof to safely curl up and rest.

 

In the hospital, you left me with mean doctors.

The nurses didn’t care my health issues increased.

You order, “I’m not your advocate. Leave.”

I can’t because you pay all my medical bills.

 

Instead of being grateful, you call our kids a mistake.

By denying me love, you murdered my soul.

You mock, “Where you going to live?”

Live? Live? I am not living; I’m surviving.

 

Standing there cold and silent, you hurt my feelings.

Instead of apologizing, comforting, and holding me,

Knowing you won, you dare me, “Get a divorce.”

Afraid to shed a tear, I’m an abandoned starving puppy.

 

In private and public, you act like I am your property.

Time and time again, you train my kids to hate me.

You groom them, “It’s because of your mother.”

I was taught no one wants me to be loved.

 

You came home tonight, yelling at us for not being perfect.

You can’t figure out why my body gave up being your slave.

You belittle me to others but ask me, “Why no gumption.”

Let me explain. My soul left my body; I’m a Zombie.

 

Acting as a big damn hero because your little gifts,

Are rewards after plunging a knife into my soul.

Cocky and arrogant, you smirk. “I am your greatest gift.”

I have grown to understand that love is supposed to hurt.

 

You will never admit that you are a narcistic asshole.

Not only do you lack empathy, you care only about your ego.

Imprisoning me with isolation, you guide others, “She is crazy.”

By me trying to earn your love, I keep expecting different results.


Breaking Free from Abuse


Abuse is a painful reality that affects countless individuals, leaving them trapped in cycles of emotional and psychological torment. In this blog article, we delve into the emotionally charged poem "Abuse Me More" by Jae B. Wells, shedding light on the destructive nature of abuse and the importance of breaking free from its grip.

In the poem, the author highlights various forms of emotional manipulation used by the abuser. From belittling and devaluing to blaming and isolating, these tactics aim to strip the victim of their self-worth and autonomy. Understanding these manipulation techniques is crucial to recognize their harmful impact on one's mental health.

The victim continually strives to gain the approval and love of their abuser, going to great lengths to prove their worth. The poem sheds light on the heartbreaking reality of yearning for affection despite being met with constant rejection. It emphasizes the emotional toll and desperation that victims may experience in their pursuit of validation. Repeated experiences of abuse often foster a sense of victimhood, where the individual feels trapped in a never-ending cycle. The author describes feeling suffocated, constantly under pressure, and without a safe space to seek refuge. Breaking free from this cycle requires acknowledging that one deserves better treatment and actively working towards a healthier future.

This poem also highlights the devastating impact abuse can have on children within the family dynamic. The abuser not only targets the victim but often manipulates the children, turning them against the victim through lies and grooming. This perpetuates the cycle of abuse, creating a toxic environment for all involved. The poem brings forth the painful realization that despite the victim's attempts to earn love and acceptance, their efforts are in vain. The abuser remains unapologetic, self-centered, and unwilling to change. This reinforces the importance of recognizing when love becomes toxic and understanding that one's worth is not dependent on the acceptance of an abuser.

"Abuse Me More" serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive nature of abuse and the urgency of breaking free from its grip. It emphasizes the need for self-empowerment, seeking support from trusted individuals, and creating a safety net to escape the cycle of victimhood. Healing from abuse is a challenging journey, but with perseverance and support, it is possible to reclaim one's sense of self-worth, find solace, and build a healthier, more fulfilling future. Remember, you are deserving of love, respect, and a life free from abuse.
