I figured it out
Why I'm so messed up
I'm not wrong
But you are
You did something
You shouldn't have
It stole my childhood away
It turned me into a monster
Robbed me of my sanity
Murdered who I was
Made my insecurities
A bleeding reality
Why did you do it
Was I that tempting
Like the tree in the garden
Did you feel you had to touch
Although it was wrong
Was it a game for you
To see how many pieces
You could shatter me into
You said you loved me
But what you did wasn't love
It was some kind of twisted
Fantasy of yours
To see if I would scream
To hold me down as far as you could
I hate you with every instance of my heart

This is a good write. It shows real emotion. Nobody should have to go through this, and its horrible to think alot of children do.I love how you know what happened, but you have kinda of gotten over it, although through hate, you still can live. Great write. I love the emotion you put into it. Good job and thanks for entering the contest.

Nobody should have to have their childhood stolen and the fact that the people who do it leave you blaming yourself for what has happened, that you are the one in the wrong, the mind games they hurt so much... a game that at that age you really can't comprehend.

I'm not really sure how to comment on this piece. This contest was originally meant to let me know I'm not alone, but I think it's doing that for everyone.
I do hope you realise that there are others just like you, more to the point there are others who knew/know people just like the one you speak of.

This is a good poem but the only thing I could say is that some of your "I" were in capital letters while the rest are in small letters. Why not make it uniform? Goddluck to the said contest. good work
