Array ( [sid] => 84854 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => untitled [time] => 2005-02-18 14:18:57 [hometext] => true story [bodytext] => I have a little secret,
Hidden deep inside.
I never speak of it,
It makes me want to cry.

I was just a little girl,
Wanting to be your friend.
Instead I lived in fear,
That it would never end.

I waited every night
For you to fall asleep
I’d lie there in silence
Trying not to make a peep

Years went by
And the pain went on
I never told anyone
Pretended nothing was wrong

You never hit me
But you might as well
Cause what you did to me
Put me through hell

Why did I let it go
On for so long?
What did I do that
Was so wrong?

I know its not my fault
For what you did to me
Our parents were
To blind to see

You raped me
Almost every night
For years and years
It was a constant fight

I wanted to tell
Our mom and dad
But I was too afraid
That they would be mad

I knew they would be
Mad at me and mad at you
Thought to myself
There’s nothing I can do

It’s over now
Free from the pain
I know that I am
Not the one to blame

This must have been a very painful write and it took a lot of courage to do it. Although I could never say that I feel your pain, I hurt for you as I read it. A real good poem and I applaud you for writing it.

welcom to YPDC, here you have a place to be yourself, we are all here if you need help, just ask. enjoy yourself.

Yes, this must have be painful to write, you pourd out your soul for all to read, this alone is hard but to have it be of such a deeply hurtful nature tells a whole lot about you, you are a kind person who was taken advantage of but just know that God will help you through, He will never leave you, I will pray for you, I just want you to know that you are still innocent, and you are not going to be held accountable dont dwell on this for it will make you in to some one your not, you have wounderful talent for writing please do poet again soon.

it took me longer then I thought it would my hands were trembling, trying to find the right words not to offend you, I dont know what type of hell you must have goner through but I do know that you are still you and you are still innocent no matter what any one says. this poem was probabley one of the most tearfelt, heart wrenching sad poems I have ever and probably will ever read, but the fact that you posted it shows that you are not changed by it , I do hope that you will find a way to cope with these nightmares of your past, please do post again. be strong and God bless.

thank you for all the comments, it was hard to write, but its been bugging me for years.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
