Forgiveness

In my silence, I would love to forget, but restitution has'nt come quite yet.And with 
one accord,I keep moving forth. I stretch my heart to heal some more.  It used to be all 
that I wanted was to learn some wisdom, trust and truth, but now all I want to learn is 
some wisdom for you. As my seasons change ,I've now grown to know, when ones heart 
creates, one soul does not owe. So,then temp my heart with loves display       I'd 
rather  wash away the stains of yesterday

You Took Me

When you took me, you were wrong. I was under age and God knows I was'nt strong. I 
was young and you forced me to pretend that my life with my family was nearly at an 
end. You beat me and tortured me day after dayand when you would leave , I would 
feel safe. I'd get on my knees and pray "please lord just spare me one more day".  
I don't eat, I dont sleep, you'd beat me till I was weak. I don't want to die, 
everyday  I'd cry "someone please release me from this pain I feel inside.  I've 
endured so much pain that my body is numb, I silently wait for someone to come.  I 
wish I had wings to fly up above, to sing that I'm home to finally feel loved.  the 
scars from your knife will haunt me the rest of my life.  You left me beaten and 
bloody,I waited for an angel to find me and my wish came true from out of the blue, 
God sent me an angel to show me the truth. I was empty and scared, hoping someone's 
out there who might even care.   was tired and cold.  Will this little lost girl 
soon leave this world?   Someone finally came to carry me home, by the grace of 
god, so that I can move on.   don't know if  I'll get over this, and I'll never 
understand why, how another human being could take an innocent child. You took my 
strength and destroyed my pride, just to satisfy that sickness that manifests in 
your mind.  I can't go back and change what you've done, but I have finally forgave 
you so I can move on. Even though it may take some time  and a lot of searching 
inside,I hope you find peace while your doing your time.  I'll always wonder for 
the rest of my life, why you took me that day for that life  altering ride.

What I Want

I want to love you without clutching,
Appreciate you without judging
Join youwithout invading
Invite you without demanding
Leave you without guilt
criticize you without blaming
and help you without insulting
If I can have the same from you,then we can trully meet and enrich each other

I Cry

Sometimes when I'm alone, I cry because I'm on my own.  The tears I cry are bitter 
and warm, they flow with life but take no form. I cry because my heart is torn and 
I find it difficult to carry on.  If I had a shoulder to cry on or someone who 
would lend an ear, I cry and tell them of my lost and lonely years.   The world 
moves fast and would rather pass by, then to stop and see what makes me cry. Though 
sometimes I cry and no one cares about why.  When I move on,they wont care when I'm 
gone, why I cried.
