Abuse,

It's something strange, isn't it?

How we think we got the right to 'abuse' someone.

We think we got the right to lay our hands on someone else's body.

Or how we think we got the right to hurt people, in awful ways.

I don't think anyone could ever understand the logic behind it.

I don't think people who abuse, understand what they're doing.

Neither will they understand what kind of damage they have done.

Some people might never get a good night of sleep again,

Others will have issues with trust.

But somehow, someway, everyone is a victim, a fighter, and an abuser all in one.

Everyone hurt somebody, no matter how much.

We all do it.

By calling people names online,

Hitting our partner for coming home too late,

Rejecting friends who felt more than just a friendship.

We all do it.

So do you,

And so do I.
