Sad Recollection...

Missing image

Vociferous yells from evil tongues, whip my face,
leave scars, tainted recollection.
Memories turned foul,after happiness wore over.
Hypocritical smirks, strung ear to ear,
bitter display of blackened souls.
Knuckles, violent fists, tinge me red;
-a red so bright it scared me-
leave impressions on my defenseless body.
Permanent bruises, pain,

constant reminder of an unforgivable past;

painted clearly in my childish, confused mind.
Yet, still a child of naïve mind, I hoped, yearned,
for love, -just a little-
from a family, -my own-  that in times of despair,
regretted, abused, neglected an unexpected daughter.

    I am sorry, there are a few of these types of writes that I am at loss for words.
    I don't think you need me to tell you how awesome this is or very beautifully written and expressed your words are.
    All I can say to this is that this is one of the most beautiful pieces I have read.
    Perhaps it has touched me so deeply because of my own personal issues but regardless... this is absolutley perfect!

    We can not have peace until the home is always a sanctuary and we honor the trust we been given to cherish the souls of our children. Wars, affairs of state, the money spent on pets mean nothing when the children get left behind. When we decide which ones are worth are time and leave the others behind. You sing a all to familiar song, one I spent time working with both in my own life and when i worked with others. Love, Tom B.

    Those lines really struck a chord with me because of their truth. All a child wants is love, and even in a home when that love is continually denied, she still craves it and years for it.

    Brilliant, intense write. I congradulate you on your courage to pen something so painful.

    May your future be brighter!

    May your scars inside & out
    become ever so much lighter

    May your journeys be filled with peace
    each step a constant ease

    May your metier & fortitude
    be as the sea - an endless gallery

    May the stars shine bright
    May your burdens be ever so slight!

    Now with your gift all your pain as you have done so here... ever so eloquently... write it all away...

    Brava!!! Two thumbs up!!

    Wishing you much success in all of your endeavors
