2:22 Am

I changed the words up because the original is too disturbing for readers on here. Still, read with caution - there are some words that are unsettling. Thanks for choosing this poem to read. Reminds Me of Fun times… Memories… Never Happened… Clock chimes… 2:22 AM… I'm gay Yet bi… Confused… But, I'm seeing things in black and white I was at his door, 222 I check the clock like I always do - It's 2:22 AM...who knew… Don't you hurt Me again… I was just 8 during That time you Scarred me good… Raped in rue… Wrapped up in Solitude Reminds Me of Screwed up… Times when I got Molested... 8 years Old...it's Enough To hurt… Rough pain Words hurt Blades are Aflame - Cut me He scared Me…so, Bro, please… Don't you hurt Me again… I was just 8 during That time you Scarred me good… Raped in rue… Wrapped up in Solitude Reminders Of the past Bleed through me… Kill the grief Inside me Never...free… I admit - I'm human I like men… (Yet I like women at the same time) I was at his door, 222 I check the clock like I always do - It's 2:22 AM...who knew… I was at his door, 222 I check the exit sign, for I'm through With his bull of bittersweet rue Don't you hurt Me again… I was just 8 during That time I'm Cruelly scarred… Raped in rue… Wrapped up in Solitude But, I will Forgive him For what he's Done, but still… It hurts me To say this - I love you… I love you… Bro, I do.. I was at his door, 222 I knew it was wrong, but it felt right - It's now 2:22 AM…(I regret everything) Reminds me - Be my remedy please Remind me - Of good times spent at ease Reminds me - Never trust guys or girls Remind me - Shine like emerald pearls

I hope you've kept the original and in time will 're post it, so sorry youve had to live with such abuse, it should never happen to anyone least of all a child. One of the most powerful pieces ive read on soup is Rape by Charlotte puddifoot i think you would find it very moving:-( Hugs Jan xx

Unfortunately, it's not a work of fiction...it's a reality I faced and still face on a daily basis and at nighttime as well. Hugs are very helpful, thank you! -JWE
