21. The Unknown Murder
There once was a murder,
But this one has a twist.
The victim was my innocence,
Stolen through his fist.
There once was a murder,
But this one has a twist.
The victim was my innocence,
Stolen through his fist.
I feel like you've put everything that i have been feeling into words. I have been struggling to express what the abuse I endured from my ex felt like, and your poem has done that for me....
Like the sea and the sky,
We reflect each other, you and I.
Past the moon and the stars,
This relates to me so much.
The little girl lay so still
While you crept into her bed
She pretended not to notice you
While she sang into her head
I'm reminiscing and I'm missing,
The childhood I never had.
I'm triggering and I'm figuring,
There were reasons to be sad.
I don't get how you can't see
All the things you did to me.
If only you knew
All the pain you put me through.
You came to the world,
On a God blessed night.
Your limbs were all there,
Your heart beat just right.
A little bit angry through the years,
A whole lot lonely through my tears.
A wonderful person the people said,
While I cry alone in bed.
I have gone through abuse from someone I loved. Verbal, emotional and physical. I still continue to go through abuse even if it's not physical I'm 5 months pregnant with our second child and...
You stole my innocence, you soiled my life.
How dare you inflict so much strife.
No one protected me, no one saved me.
Suffering alone and wanting to flee.
She looked up to you.
I did to.
I told her you were a good role model.
Over and over I did.
I'm so sorry that your brother betrayed your trust like that. I love my brother so much and could never imagine something like that happening to me. But I do know what it's like to be...
He's the hunter of utterance of destruction
He sleeps when I'm awake
I long to hear him whisper
To give my ears a break
That poem was so deep and thoughtful. I can tell that the author put much effort into it to write it. It inspired me because I have been verbally bullied before and I like to write poems...
Why did you choose to ruin your life?
I'm sure I will never know
You turned into a nasty man
And let your evil grow
I really broke down and cried when I read your poem. It is like you reached in my head and pulled out the feelings I have felt for so many years and put them on paper. You are a very...
Sometimes I'm confused and don't know what to do.
I need help and I need it from you.
My life is full of "ups" and "downs,"
and I need someone to lift my "frowns."
I can relate to this because I have been in the same scenario with my dad...and so it's good to know that we are many in this. But the truth is, somehow, you have to talk about it. You may...
There was a time he loved her.
Now it's clear there's nothing there.
He walks around so flippantly
With no interest or a care.
I count the seconds
As the time comes near.
I know as I wait
That pain will be here.
Late at night I lie in fright
I can hear him coming for me
One hand over my mouth to keep me quite
Dear God, please let my mother see
Small, little child with her eyes open wide
Can't understand why it hurts inside.
Poor little girl just stares into space,
Transports herself into another place.
Nine years ago, if you'd have said
I would be where I am now,
I would have laughed and thought you silly.
How could I escape my living hell?
This from a broken little girl who screamed for her mom all the time but she never came to rescue her. Then I grew and I learned to live with all the bruises and cuts life had thrown at...
I never knew you,
we never spoke,
but you thought you could take
what was never yours...
I've spent many years now
Running from the bear.
Just when I think you're gone,
You once again are there.
