Array ( [sid] => 132365 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => let it slip [time] => 2007-03-04 12:42:49 [hometext] => 5/25/94 (stumbled upon some really old stuff of mine) [bodytext] => its still the same-
presumptous to think
a mammoth destruction
could ever fade.

your unwelcome touch
insinuating more than kindness
still tramples my mind
and heart too much.

you had the audacity
to steal what security i felt,
to kill the love i had and
leave me full of animosity.

i detest you and
the horror of those
vivid encounters that i acknowledge
but will never understand.

angelic innocence,
preyed upon by the hand
that leaves me absent of content,
haunted by your malevolence.

inhabiting my mind
are the mental wounds of your
uncomforting smiles on my thigh
that i cannot leave behind.

grinding at my soul,
the evil in your being
the monstrosity of self
you could not control.

i'm too numb to feel
sorry for your warped sense of
direction, self-concocted manifestations
that you insist are real.

i let it slip
into nothing more than an
infestation in my mind, uncovered
by tears that continually drip.

I like your rhyme scheme, I don't think I've ever seen that before.

This is an excellent write of a very painful experience that many have had to endure. Thank you for sharing this piece.

priss .. this leaves me more saddened than any one heart
should be allowed .. and you have endured more pain
than anyone should be subjected to.

I do hope that this was therapeutic enough for you to
move forward at least, though I know, (far too well), the
scars of the past are slow to heal.

Your fortitude and bravery to share your deeper pains
are inspiring. Thank you for sharing ~

Unbelievably beautiful words expressed so coherently and so full of strength. What gives me hope is the age of the write. And that this "malevolence" is history. I am more in awe of your writing with each read!!!!
