Array ( [sid] => 88886 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A Hard Life [time] => 2005-03-26 22:34:56 [hometext] => I'm sure this will strike a chord with someone out there. I wrote it after reading a friend's online journal. She has indeed... had a hard life in all of her 16 years and is still living that hard life in many different and difficult ways. [bodytext] => She was a happy child…
Until that night…
A very long time ago.
When he stole the very essence of her…
All that was precious and warm.
All the trust and innocence of her soul.

She’s had a hard life.
She’s been through a lot of pain and strife.
She’s been treated badly… very sadly.
She’s had a rough and tough way to go
And she doesn’t know… why?
She’s had a hard… hard life.

Now… the nightmares…
They come and go.
Invading her dreams…
They won’t leave her alone.
She remembers bits and pieces of things…
She thought she’d long forgotten.
Hidden away… left to rot in the depths of her soul.
The details are still sketchy at best…
As the horror lives on…
Echoing painfully from that first night…
When everything began to disintegrate in her life.

She remembers…
How he dominated and intimidated her…
To make her his slave of love.
But his love was a love….
A daddy should never show.
The only love he had within himself
Was to rape his only child
Over and over again.
Raping her of her all innocence
And her worth of self.

She’s had a hard life.
She’s been through a lot of pain and strife.
She’s been treated badly… very sadly.
She’s had a rough and tough way to go
And she doesn’t know… why?
She’s had a hard… hard life.
She’s spent her whole life being afraid… alone.
All the while… living in a nightmarish hole.
Her life has changed…
The little child inside…
Tortured and left tied…
Left there to die…
Has finally died away… tragically alone.

Her life has been one long hellish nightmare… .
She ponders and wonders…
“Will she ever be able to live life free…
To put it all asunder and move on?”
Maybe one day she can…
And know that it’s okay…
Cause… he can’t touch her
Or have his own way.
He’s already got one hell of a price to pay!
For what he has done…
In the end… he won’t get away!

She’s had a hard life.
She’s been through a lot of pain and strife.
She’s been treated badly… very sadly.
She’s had a rough and tough way to go
And she doesn’t know… why?
She’s had a hard… hard life.

Very touching girl.
Yo momma is very proud of u for taking this approach to things.
Soemday she will be able to cope.
I started having flash backs at the age of 50 of an uncle. before that my life was hard too. many called me bad names behind my back. they couldn't do it face to face.
Once I faced the demons that were buried so deep I realized that i HAD TO LEARN TO LUV MYSELF BEFORE i COULD LUV ANY ONE ELSE. I stoped dating and found myself. I found forgiveness for my perpatraiter then my own inner healings came. Oh he's long dead too has he blew his own brains out 'cause I was far from his only vitom. Still I forgave and found my own peace.
keep up the good writes girl.
luv, huggs, smiles,
yomomma,
emy
