Anna-Marie Docherty Poet Free verse

Don't

Don’t
hate me, despise me
Don’t
cut me off, hide me
Don’t 
put me in a corner to punish me
Don’t
mentally torture me
Don’t
yell, shout or scream at me
Don’t
tear share or scare me
Don’t
hurt me, nor squeeze me
Don’t
taunt, tease and thump me
Don’t 
shove, crush, or bruise me
Don’t 
push, pull or pummel me
Don’t
break me or blind me
Don’t
abuse me, or bleed me
Don’t 
rape me, suffocate me
Don’t 
murder me, lose me
DON’T

Carolyn Devonshire February 22, 2011 at 12:01 PM It's so good to see you back on the Soup, Anna-Marie. I heard your computer was down for a while. Dane Ann is talking about going to Europe and she wants to visit you. If I'm able, I'd like to join her. I'm still getting compliments on the beautiful watch you made for me! Miss you and love you, Carolyn

Carolyn Devonshire February 5, 2011 at 2:06 PM This sounds like a compelling plea from one who has endured much suffering, Anna-Marie. Nicely done! I heard you were having computer issues and maybe that's why you haven't been online for a while. I am having computer problems too and had to drop off Facebook because my account was hacked. Miss you! Love, Carolyn
