Innocence screams to the creator,
Calling out, praying for the strength to fell better.
Dimond tears cut and scar my cheek,
Falling again, I'm so pathetically weak.
They say a childs purity can give them wings,
But my wings were torn years before.
I try to fly away upon a hopeful dream,
But it crumbles and I plumet landing on deaths door.
Morbid love floods my every thought,
Drowning the beauty of my soul.
I'm chained inside and left to rot,
Forced to feel the shame and long for what they stole.
Pushing my emotions into a dark and lonely place,
Hoping then they'll be forgotten.
Yet they continue to torture, as my heart begins to race,
Again I'm called to feed my acidic addiction.
A razor blade kisses my pale and brittle flesh,
Curing the horror with violent mutilation.
Glancing at the stranger, I feel so powerless,
Dying there before my tattered reflection.
As she stands before me bleeding,
The last breaths of this angel whisper freedom.
Finally deaf to the screams, numb to all feeling,
I'm safe and at peace within my twisted salvation.
Author notes
I used all thewords except horrid but changed the tenses of some... hope it's okay...
it's about abuse and rape and the after effects of it...the desperation and isolation felt by it's victims...this is personal to me except I'm not dead....again...I hope it's okay.

Wow
This is an extremely deeply penned poem and I can totally understand where you are coming from in this poem. I watched my girlfriend at the time when I was twelve years old get brutally raped in front of my eyes I tteied to knock the guy off my g/.f but he knocke dme so hard I fell down into the creek I got bakc up a few secs late rbeing dazed at night time and bashed his ass off her and she wa slaying there stripped of innocence dignity pride respect so I covered her up picked her up and ran to her house half a block away ands called the cops which later caught the SOB who was setenced to death three strikes rule. I never would have begun to understand how a girl must feel when she is raped but this is a very well strongworded poem for that. nice work here its very depe and visually disturbing but excellent. keep up the very good work and congrats on Silver =}
8rose* Sincerely, Paul =}

Nice.
I really liked it. Please keep them coming. "Pushing my emotions into a dark and lonely place,
Hoping then they'll be forgotten.
Yet they continue to torture, as my heart begins to race,
Again I'm called to feed my acidic addiction."
Was definitely my favorite part. =)
It's very symbolic.

I can relate something like that happened to me but I don't let it control my life. Bad things happen that we have no control over, and sometimes you have to learn to forget. I loved it, it was very deep ,and flowed together quite nice.
