scared out of my mind
that you will hurt me once again
the things you did to me that night
when you tried to take my innocence.
i trusted you and treated you as a friend
it was hard enough knowing you were family
my heart wasnt able to love or trust
but now i think it is starting to mend.
the next morning you thought you could pay me off to keep my mouth shut
it didnt work did it?
yet you still didnt have to go to jail because you used your wit
your a sick twisted piece of shit.
i grew up thinking it was something i did wrong
but i have realized your the one who has to live with your sin.
i sometimes get carried away with my past
but then i take a look in the mirror and tell myself i need to move on.
the torture im doing to myself shouldnt have to last.
Author notes
my uncle molested me at 10 and this is how i reflected
i also hate todays society because he got no jail time

There are just a lot of real "pukes" in the world. The saddest thing is that it is the gentle and loving ones who get caught in their traps... Good purge!
-
very intense. this is really a good message to others who are trying to move on that they can. great language and the concept in which how you presented it was great. thank you for entering and good luck

i grew up thinking it was something i did wrong
so many innocent children grow up thinking that they did something to deserve the abuse. i was one of them. you did nothing to ask for it nor was it your fault in any way. i hope you REALLY realize this deep within your soul. thank you for this entry into my contest and congratulations on the bronze trophy that you have already earned with this write. viyanna rosemarie -
good job, dear.
thank you for entering the contest.
=D -
A great poem and I am pleased you know it was them and not you. You make the reader really feel how bad it was, great job with that, best of luck in the contest!

Two things straight off:
1. You should really place apostrophes in their designated words. Sometimes not placing an apostrophe where it belongs creates another word that you do not intend.
2. You should cut the really long lines to shorter ones. Your first verse is a good example as to the form the totality of the poem should be in.
"but i have realized your the one who has to live with your sin." - the first "your" would be "you're" as in "you are the one who has..."
Other than that: a nice poem that you have written here.

wow this is deep and I"m soo sorry to hear that..

thank you for the entry. a sad tale and that stuff can never be mended. nice flow and show of pain

I sympathize with your experiance and I empathize with your disdain toward society and our justice system. It is a joke and needed a serious over haul years ago.
This is full of very powerful emotion, I like it! I don't mind cussing so long as it is used appropriatley and this is one of those times.
Great job and good luck in the contest.
Oh, just one small nit pic... spelling is great but capitalization isn't. I will come back and hopefuly you fixed it, improving the chances of being added to the top list. Thanks once again and good luck! -
What the hell! What a effing jerk face!!! This is a great poem!!! Thanks for sharing! And good luck!

This is very sad. A little graphic....

wow
OMFG!! finalist defo!! x -
So, for my comment (i randomly feel like commenting people) i think that you did this piece well. it had a small rhyme in it every once in a while, very subtle. and the feeling is one that many feel and few can express. nevertheless, you wrote well, and you've become strong. keep writing and keep up the good work.
-
Though this is a good poem, and I really feel for you after reading it( you painted a vivid picture with your words), and it did read very well, it did break the rules of the contest by explaining a scary situation and not teaching me about fear, the feeling itself, and how I know I'm feeling it.(as if I had never before felt fear or any emotion).
Still I enjoyed reading this poem.
Thank you for entering my contest. -
i am so sorry that you had to go through such a thing at such a young age.........

I'm so sorry for you,
my beautiful daughter. That man should have never been allowed to walk free. But, your comment about today's society is so true, I've seen it happen before.
Try to move forward with your life, and leave that bastard behind, don't dwell on it or let it control your life. You are to precious to lose...
Your daddy,
Brazos

every word is dripping with emotion or rather hatred for your uncle i'd say he's a fucke
