It started many eons ago.
Like the molten mass
transforming into the Earth;
my change has been held out,
for many years.
But unlike the earth,
this change was not for the better
Way to far back in my history,
when my heart was young,
I believed in this mysterious feeling,
invading my heart.
This feeling called love.
I believed in love with everything I had;
but that did not matter.
My young and vulnerable heart,
was exposed to the world.
Somehow in my naive mind,
I kept repeating to myself,
bad things don't happen to good people.
It was only later I discovered,
bad things always happen to the best of us.
My innocence was fractured the first time,
at the age of five.
Being stripped down to nothing,
and forced to please the man that raised me,
was the first crack in my belief in love
and my first step toward hatred.
Years passed by,
day after day,
tortured and abused,
night after night.
By the time I became the women I am now,
love's presence was a distant memory,
replaced by hatred.
Author notes
9. I wish I could believe in love, like I believe in the horror of hate.
This is the truthful story of my life, my past has made me who I am. I am 17 and a senior in highschool. I live in oregon. I want to be your sister since I can't be your crazy ex GF. I am also a site greeter

Oh, this makes me so sick and angry, that someone could do such a brutal thing to a child. I am sorry you went through that and hope in time, you can somewhat heal, I know it will never go away completely...

Wow...this was full of powerful emotion...I am so sorry you had to go through all that...you are right bad things do happen to the best of us...it's sad that some of us have to learn that the hard way...i think to me it would be an even worse betrayal for you to have to go through that at the hand of a parent,I cannot imagine...this piece was written so well,the flow was perfect and I loved the wording you chose,you are a really good writer...it is amazing that we can take from something so tragic and create art from it...you are a strong wise young woman,thanks for sharing your story,it took a lot of courage...

i feel the hate...i can sense it...i can taste it..
burning like the fires of hell...
but love is way better, even though you may not be loved back, tis better to love everything than hate some one.
