[24.07.08] - ♥ So I guess it's time to talk.



The acidic aftertaste of white wine and champagne,

lies heavy on my stomach - I felt that I'd be sick.

8am - Mum's shouting, it was her champagne I opened,

I just needed to drink to get all my troubles away.

He wont answer my texts and I'm so frightened,

because that probably means he can't be bothered

and that shows that my turmoil wont spark anything in him,

though it's not my fault it does deeply burn me.

I wish he'd love me the way I love him, he's so special to me

and has on many a day made the day worth living.

Slept most of the day - 7pm and I wake up sweating,

a fair few nightmares about being put under a curse

and then beforehand, some realistic rapes, from ex.

The words he said were different from the real times,

I can tell you that; in the dream he was going to prison

and he was a little more agressive, but still loving

in that twisted, mother fucking hyped up sense.

He coerced me into a confusion I am well aware of in waking life

and pulled himself ontop of me and I told him no, get away, get off.

What would my whimpers mean anyway - they felt so bloody real,

like the ones I had once made in waking life, please stop doing this.

His lips against mine, I could almost taste his damp moisture

and his crotch thrusting against mine, I felt so shocked and degraded,

I swear I must've been crying in my sleep, I don't know I couldn't have.

Pushed himself in and out, the sensation that I'd had those days

when he used to, I could feel the throbbing as if it was real

and the deep heavy breathing in my ear and on my neck.

Oh god, even writing this now brings me close to tears -

it hurts to know I was a victim and frightened of him.

I realise now, I should probably write the truth, speak the words

that I was ashamed to admit, I never like admitting abuse

or that I've been taken advantage of, I like to be seen as strong,

even if I'm not. That's just my pride kicking in.

It's all he left me with.

I wont drink tonight, don't know if going to Jamie's tomorrow,

as it would probably end up being doing something with Jason,

after all I get like that when I've been drinking.

But, some part of me says who cares, Steven doesn't love you,

Karl still haunts you and there's nothing going for you,

so what possibly can you lose, from making another mistake?

I'll go and run myself a bath now and cry; the tears will be soaked up in water

and nobody will realise what they are.

Behind the Harry Potter book I'll hide all my horrendous notions

and hope that someday, somebody will fall in love with my smile.

    Damn. You have expressed your pain so very well within these lines - allowing such room for the pain to leak out and numb with intensity. So very sorry you had to endure the memory of this, and the thoughts of it all. I have been there, and it makes every step so hard, every fall so immense ...


    Well penned!

    wow.... this left me in awe.... you have valor to pen this out hun, and you call yourself weak.. it takes time to say it out loud even more time to try and forget it which is something impossible... its sad that these things happen to many of us and that we're too afraid or too in shock to even do something... this is all I can say about your write because honestly It seems wrong of me to try to fix this when this is too damn personal!

    Holy crap. This is a powerful and stunning piece. You deserve nothing less than gold for this. Your emotions were haunting and your imagery was so vivid it almost makes the reader want to turn away, like if watching a movie and you can't stand to see the disturbing images on the screen.

    Amazing, amazing write

    Wowww, this is absolutely just. Wow. Definitely put me in awe. This was so vivid, and I could tell this was 100% personal. You wrote everything clearly and made the situation so understandable. Incredibly penned. I honestly can't even pick out my favorite lines. The whole thing was just breathtaking, and I had chills go up my spine throughout the whole thing. I seriously honestly feel like bawling after reading this. I can't relate fully, but to what I can relate to, just struck me hard. Thank you so much for entering this, it really opened my eyes. Best of luck to you with everything♥
