[hometext] => Well this is my first poem .It is a message to my dad , who is a leader of a church in Ireland .
[bodytext] => You are the devil incarnate
You spew your evil sayings like sick
You used such powerful words
"I do this because i love you"
And I believed you
You are the devil incarnate
Your eyes you use to hypnotise
You pleaded with such tugging words
"Do you love me?"
And I trusted you
You are the Devil incarnate
You used your fork to separate me
From my mum and my childhood
"I do this because i love you"
And I believed you
You are the Devil incarnate
You used terror to control me
You used such threatening words
"You’ll kill your mum, send me to jail"
And I kept quiet
You are the Devil incarnate
You are evil, you are sick
All these years you have taunted me
"It was 50-50, you're to blame"
Now I don’t believe you

| Wow! I have felt like that before but have not been able to express it that way. I hope things work out for you and I also hope that you do not blame God for what actions your dad has done. |

Stitch already said what I was going to say. At least part of it....Awesome poem, my friend! I don't think I've seen you around here before, are you new? I would love to keep reading your work. You can send me a message if you need anything (I know I sent about five when I first came here trying to figure out exactly what the forums were all about....*blushes*). Welcome to the site!
Blessings
Love, Jenna |

As for Archie's comment, I would find it hard not to blame God for what I understand to be the underlying atrocities perpetrated by your father, simply because he used God's authority to hide his crimes. That is despicable. Utterly so.
As for stoney1's comment - well, that's just insensitive and mindless - idiotic even.
My comment? Part incredulity that you managed to write something like this, and part anger that someone is capable of abuse of both a position of authority, and one's own children.
Needless to say I think its excellent, yet harrowing. Well done and welcome again - please excuse my earlier mindlessness- I'm hungover (again).
Thanks for sharing. |

Bravo! and welcome to YPDC! This is an amazing piece. What an introduction! It is as if you threw open the YPDC door and stepped in with a shout of "Ladies and Gentlemen - I HAVE ARRIVED".
I am staggered by the emotion in this. It is seriously powerful and quite heartwrenching. I join the others in thanking you for sharing it.
Looking forward to reading more of your work,
SNM
