Array ( [sid] => 135700 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Memory Resention [time] => 2007-07-04 01:52:01 [hometext] => This is about trying to get past rape...the emotional wreckage left behind..it was written when I was 18. I'm 26 now.. [bodytext] => as the salty tears run from my eyes
I feel so alone and i don't know why
I know people love me and will always be there
but though I'm told they do, I'm not sure they care
I'm hurting so badly, just dying inside
I seem to be falling a victim of my very own mind
I walk backwards in life, reliving my past
I feel I'm aboard a ship that's sinking fast
one moment I'm as happy as I can possibly get
then I remember what I wish I could just forget
memories so terrible I hate them being recalled
but they pop in from nowhere and leave me appalled
horrific scenes acted out in my head
pictures of violence my mind cant shed
I torture myself for no reason at all
just when i start to climb back up I suddenly fall
into the abyss of memories within my brain
studded with heartache and splattered with pain
the old saying goes forgive but don't forget
that saying I live by and often regret [comments] => 3 [counter] => 141 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Poess [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

So sorry these memories haunt you. (sounds so Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome) There are loads of folks out there to talk, vent, share and hopefully help you to continue to heal. You may have already sought help and if so, good for you, don't share this burden alone. I know one thing, here at YPDC, you are never alone. Folks here are my friends, family and lifeline. Holler at us, we'll try to help out best we can.
You express yourself well in your writing, a gift I know you are grateful for.

Much peace and hugs,
Laura

I know the thoughts and feelings but I was very young. Just remember you did nothing to cause this. there's just many perverts out there.
Hang tuff.
huggs, prayer,
emy
