I've been a constant victim of so many forms of abuse from a real early age..I know everyone can relate to this..and I'm not saying I'm the only one out there..so right now I've said I'm done I'm through with it..I refuse to be taken for granted..and once you hurt me you might as well consider packing your bags and leaving and don't ever look back.. How do I release the pain I feel tonight How do I let the love I feel from him shine through It all seems impossible through all of these tears They've been building up inside the chambers of my heart Unsure on how they were going to part So now I'm finally forced to be face to face With all the feelings of disappointment and rage That would surely make me fall from grace Or perhaps in God's eyes seem as a disgrace Why can't I just ignore them And pretend that I was never abused Or constantly taken over and used It's something I never asked for Yet unexpectedly it comes knocking at my heart's door And on nights just like this Those feelings are more potent than any poisonous kiss And each time I move on Someone wrong enters my life with no invitation nor warning And leaves their knife embedded deep within my soul Until I can gather up all of my strength to let them go.. "Let me be the one you call, if you jump I'll break your fall, lift you up and fly away with you into the night" ~Crash and Burn~ |

Abuse is horrible, I know. But please don't put such a strong wall around your heart that no one can reach you. That is harder to get over than the pain from the abuse. jason I'm not concieted...I'm convinced. |

wow. im sorry about what you've been through but despite what this is about, its a good poem. Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see. |

This is so full of emotion. The feeling behind it is strong, I like how it's written. Sorry you've been put through this in your life. "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Me!! |

My heart goes out to you Ceinwyn. You've expressed so many deep emotions throughout. I do hope you will be able to find the kind of peace and compassion that each and every one of us deserves. If you find yourself in a relationship that's heading that direction, get out quickly and don't look back. You've got a positive and strong attitude now that sounds like you'll be watching to ensure you stear away from this, and that's a wonderful thing. Should you ever need anyone to talk to, please don't hesitate to e-mail me. Best wishes, /Kit |
