Haunting demons taunt and tease
They shame our souls and minds
Telling us that we're to blame
For being true and kind.

"You deserved it," they will claim
"You did not call for help.
You laid there silent, not a word
To say that you want out."

"What's wrong with you?  Can't you see?
You are the one at fault.
You must not have minded it
It did not come to a halt."

They bind us and control us
And we don't understand
Why it seems that we're to blame
For actions of others' hands.

We were innocent and pure
unwanting of this sin
The fear and shame sealed our lips
And froze our love within.

EXCELLENT!  You write about the things I try to hide.  The memories that have torn my life apart.  And yes ur poems are so very true !!

Peace


Once there was a darkness
Deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had
Ahhhhhh you gave me light

~It seems that you write with an aching knowledge for this subject....I can relate in ways and feel for you.  Wonderfully expressed here,...it's sort of like a message in a way.  Well done. Thank you for sharing it. Take care. *Peace.
