The bitter wind
Touches my face
And forces its way
To every place
Inside my clothes
Where it should not be
But only when
Others can't see
Between my fingers
And holding tight
Absorbing me
With all its might
Pressing against me
And not letting go
Affection towards me
That one should not show
To tell others
Would only cause harm
And he would get away with
A mere slap on the arm
I do not see
How his conscience is clean
When he started liking me
At the age of thirteen
Yet he's married to my sister
And is the father of a boy and two girls
Maybe he is expecting
More from this world
My cards have shown
Him trying to rape me
And in the end
A pregnancy
I feel like I am
Chained to a wall
And I'm the soul predator
Of my brother-in-law
Author notes
This is about what I've been going through lately. My brother in law had a conversation with me and told me that he likes me. He doesn't want me to date any guys an just date him. Every one finds it so easy to say that I should tell my parents or my sister, but they don't know my parents. All my parents would do is butt-in an try to make him apologize then go on leading their lame lives. They're too worried about self image. The way they see it is if my sister and brother in law get a divorce then they'll look bad to the people that live in this town. An I was going to tell my sister about it but the day after he admitted this stuff to me she admitted herself to a hospital for depression. So I'm just stuck here...keeping this to myself and my closest friends. I plan on getting amancipated and moving out as soon as I can. Oh and one more thing..if you didn't like this poem then o well..it's exactly how I feel and exactly what's going on it my life..and if you don't like it then shove it up your ass!

He is worth less than the arse of an earthworm. And you are welcome to tell hiom I said so. But I prefer if you don't come within shouting distance from him ever again.
You manage to convey all the desurbing emotions with this piece.
Thanks for entering but were you punk enough? Find out at judgement day. -
I have to agree with crash...he should be castrated for this...as well as a few other very painful things that I can think of..I'd say them but if anyone saw them I'd be locked up...I'm sorry you have to deal with this and hope that you get amancipated and can get away from this whole mess...argh I hate people like that...I've got some pent up rage...mind if I kick his ass too?
Good luck to you juggalette...I hope you get everything in life you ever wanted...you deserve it -

Thanks ninjette...Reading this poem over an over again just makes me so depressed. I just feel like I'm trapped in this position where I can't do anything. Most of my friends know an they all want to kill my brother-in-law...and I wish they could, but he has kids. Those kids mean everything to me...I couldn't let them grow up without a father. I dunno, I'm so confused about what to do and it sucks. But thanks for taking the time to read this and I'm glad that you liked this poem ^_^
Much love

Excellent
I know that life is shit when I can actually say that this subject doesn't surprise me. My view is that someone that would do such a thing, should be put in a public square and slowly stoned, then refused medical attention, starved, castrated, and then locked in a black hole for the remainder of their pitiful, worthless, meaningless existance. I am sorry you had the experience(s) you've had. I know it can't be easy. If you every need a listening ear, you got my attention. Hope things go a little better for you as time progresses.
As far as your poem itself, it was awesome! It had a great flow, and I loved the background set. You truely are a wonderful poet. Best of luck to you Heather.....

You and the rest of my guy friends want to kill him..

reading the first part of the poem, i thought it was about a feeling... the wind represent fear or something uncomfortable. i like it though even though i know that it's a crappy subject. you shouldnt have to go through it. can i kick his ass?

I'm going to try to get amancipated from my family so I can move out. I'm going to go to the courthouse and get legal help. I think if they know the situation and the fact that my brother-in-law lives right next to me that they'll move me out of my house. So hopefully I get help. Thanks for taking the time to read my poem

I could see where this poem was leading to, a sad story. I couldn't even imagine someone I know doing that to me.
The rhyme was excellent, everything very glum and saddening. I wish you the best in trying to get out of this trap.
