I'm beaten and I'm battered
Lying on the ground
Screaming your name
But you're nowhere to be found
I trusted and I loved
But you betrayed all hope
With rough hands and a rougher grip
A knife, a bat and rope
I begged you to stop
With screaming and pleading
I'm sorry, didn't mean it
I knew where it was leading
You tore my heart as you tore me open
Battered my soul as you battered my chest
Stole my childhood as you stole my virginity
With the nerve to tell me it's for the best
I'm dying
From the pain
Lying
To keep sane
Crying
Like the rain
It's all in vain
I can't forget your name

I just wrote this on the spot, rather like it actually.

Sorry for the long wait~ I'll promise to judge by tomorrow ~ I've been waiting on Dark to give me her two cents ~ She told me earlier~ but there were some additional poems submitted since then. I sent her a message... a few days ago~
If I don't hear from her by Friday I will close and judge then ~ Let me know if you have any problems waiting until then ....
Thanks

The write alone: I really think this is OVER the TOP good... but, I can't make the connection with Phobia's and fears in the sense the contest was written. The passion in this piece is really fantastically written. Definately deserving award... There is another judge... So I have to see what she says. Thanks for entering the contest ~ good luck to you
