So each morning when I awoke Another piece of my heart was broke I tried to live from day to day And moved along in a somewhat normal way My mom would have to work until late at night Sometimes we were lucky if we even caught a sight For she worked all of her waking hours So what little food we had, they could devour Alot of times we ate off the tips she made She tried to scrimp and tried to save Then when I was very young A man I knew took my insides and when he was done The things he did hurt me so I didn't know if I was to leave or go My heart continued to break At every touch that he would make Noone ever knew until I was older Noone knew that my heart had turned colder Finally we were rid of him I went back to my life once again My mom felt so lost in this great big world With two little boys and a middleaged girl So I pushed everything way deep down And hope noone would find what I had found I gave up lots of things as a child To see both of my brother's smile I figured why in the world should they hurt They never knew any of the dirt An emotional wreck at the age of ten When would be the day that I would win So we went along day by day Trying to stay out of each other's way Crystal |

(big hugggsssssss) Though you have been through so much that no child should ever deserve to go through, and this made me cry that you were alone with your brothers coping with the dilemmas then, your golden heat and compassion shines in this poem and you just continue to reveal more of the special person you are to every one of us as we get to know you and love you more and more! (angel friendship hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, you have come a long way and your wonderful life story has yet to see much more blessings and joy, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Crystal, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Crystal, I really don't know what to say, or how to express the way your words touched my heart. Just keep writing, my friend. Hugs to you Ethel |

Noah:Thank you.I share in the thought of not hiding who I am.Also to let those around know that if they are going through this, there is no shame and the victim is not to blame. the_loner_23:Thank you.Writing is a very good healing tool for me. QJQ:Thanks.I can say I've never had someone tell me my writing has affected them that much.It means alot. Ethel:Thank you.You know I will always write, for I'm determined not to let insanity take over...hehehhehe Crystal |
