Nightmares

by Jackie Marie   Mar 23, 2006


Erase these memories
That are stuck in my mind
Those things you did to me
A cure is what I need to find
A cure for this pain
For this deep stab of hurt
When I think of what you did
I feel like a good-for-nothing piece of dirt
I was a helpless little girl
Confused on what to do
I wish that all those living nightmares
Didn't have to be so true
You say that you are sorry
And that you are now a man
You said that you were young then
But I just don't understand
You hurt me so badly
You just have no clue
I cry when I sit here and think
Of all the stuff you put me through
I have been to hell and back
At least a hundred times
Lost in this crazy world
Anger and hate is all I find
I don't know if I can ever forgive you
Even though it was so long ago
These nightmares I live with
Are ones you will never know

    I wish that all those living
    nightmares
    ^Maybe put nightmares on the same line unless it was a formatted problem.
    I think you expressed yourself well and I think more people should read poems like this. Try to organize your thoughts, your anger or sadness, and put it to use.

    I think your poems concerning sexual abuse are great and raises awareness of this issue. I am glad you have found poetry to release some of the hurt.

    Please email me at whitedovesnest@hotmail.com as I wish to use a number of them on my site.

    Thanks
