I sit, crumbled on the icey bathroom floor, shivering, head between my knees
fighting off the nausea. Sobbing Lost, Alone, Ashamed... gasping for breath,
burning from the inside out. Silent Screams fill my lungs bursting to release,
needing to rid the disgust! Broken, Battered my heart torn to pieces,
each tear like a cold blade down my fiery cheeks. Nails digging deeper into my palms,
Crimson Cresent Moons show my Pain. You look at me and Smile with those Cold, Lying
eyes. PIG! MONSTER! HOW! WHY! OH GOD WHY! I wish to scream at your Ugly Face!
I continue on suddle locked in my prision. Flashbacks that make me Nauseaus,
Cringing inside. Tears that haunt me, reminding me at night. The aching in my
heart Hollow and Stale. Tho I walk, you have stolen the Innocence of Life from me.
I would like to dedicate this to all the Women, to all the Children and yes even to
all the Men who are or who have been victims of sexual abuse. Every 2.5 minutes
a woman in sexually abused. To all my Brothers and Sisters, to the Torn and Aching Hearts
stay strong, one day our tears will be heard.
Love,
Ashley
The air is warm
My heart is emotive
Life is moving forward
My goals are in reach
I move with the warmth
Suddle actions prove effective
Positive sea's crash on the beach
Oceans move with me
Providing me with opportunities
Open doors are in front
Passing through with honesty
The world is waiting
