Click hereBeyond the farthest reachings
where the demons can't escape
there is a child imprisoned
by his unending rape.
She's trapped beneath the surface
of the woman you became
that anguished child in bitter mourning
and you, my love, the same.
She feels the violation
as he stripped away her soul
it shattered all her dreams
and left her anything but whole.
The bitterness and anguish
penetrates still who you are
even though you've buried him
it's not over yet by far.
She's still waiting for protection
wanting you to set her free
so she can heal the bruises
and be the soul she's meant to be.
Baby, recognize that child
for she's reaching out to you
take hold her hand and help her
for it'll be your rescue too.
Wrap your loving arms around her
let her know you're sorry, dear
but he no longer has the power
to control and make her fear.
The dreams he stripped away
are yours now to reclaim
he need not be the winner
in this wicked unjust game.
We all hold many faces
my darling, oh so true
reach in and help that child
and find the face you never knew.
For life is far too short
to let dreams all pass you by
give her the help she's needing
and let that little one in you cry.
You both can heal together
two faces then are one
and the damage that he caused
I know for fact can be undone.
I'm sorry that he hurt you
and he did those things to you
if you let me hold your heart
I'll help the healing too.
You can walk into tomorrow
stripped away from all the pain
then the sorrows that he brought
you can truly count as gain.

Anonymousalmost 20 years agoThis poem is not bad, as you said, but honestly, it is not a 5. The subject is touching, the emotions are raw and real, of course no one would disagree. It is hard to vote on such an emotional touchy poem.
Anonymousalmost 20 years agoThat is one of the most beautiful and sad pieces I have ever read!
I've never understood poetry, no desire to try either, but God fawnie, if anyone disagrees with this they are heartless! That is absolutely gorgeous!
fawniealmost 20 years agoAuthorwell you just made my day, appreciate it, and i was fine with the last note..i don't know who ydd is but i did leave a rather insulting note a week or so ago, i was pissed off cuz someone had give me a rating of 1 to lower my 5. ..not because the poem was bad..just to be a butt..so figured it was the same person..anyhow, i'm still a virgin at this site..so guess i should learn to listen to the critics..hell i just might learn something, best ragards to u and thanks again, muahh!
Anonymousalmost 20 years agoWhat I think the anonymous poster was trying to do was actually stick up for you.
I mean, seriously, who the fuck is YDD and who gives two fucks about a few grammatically incorrect mistakes... ??
I agree with the poster, sorry for using your gorgeous poem to voice my opinion, but you seemed offended at the comments... I actually raised my hat to him/her when I read the posts.
They were obviously standing up for you, sorry, maybe I read the comments the wrong way...
Too much voice can't be a good thing, and obviously they shouldn't have accused you of being him/her, but their sentiments were in your favor. Just my two cents worth.
And as for you YDD... I agree... list one of your pieces...I DARE YOU!!!!!!
fawniealmost 20 years agoAuthori'd do a lot better with that last note if i knew what you were talking about..encourange the wanker? and besides i'm a woman, we're very much allowed alter ego's! haha, ydd? must be the note i posted the other day..the poem i posted was heartfelt..could stand alone with just the last verse..yeah well if i could take it back i would, if i told u the day i'd had it prob wouldn't help fix things..alter ego? maybe..chop me up and spit me out, i prob deserve it! cheers!
