Array ( [sid] => 149388 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => relapse. [time] => 2009-04-25 08:07:00 [hometext] => This isn't meant to impress anyone, or recieve praise. I merely had to stop the screaming. (Father, I hate that you still affect me.) [bodytext] => you are something that can only be whispered.

( I cannot say your name; my stomach folds into itself, grinding like my fists and teeth,

I find it funny how you still ruin me. )


cradled in silent remorse.
Infidelity is the stitching that binds us,


unraveling like sanity and memories that are meant to be forgotten,
but they crawl through the fissures like so many thorns,
smelling of your kisses,
your rancid fondlings.


I am complete in this degradation.


unwrapping my thighs from the bed I finally conquered,
the one you pressed me into countless nights
like an eager god, relentless.



I remember my lungs clenching dumbly; their need was irrelevant,
I knew if I granted them power it would give my mouth reason to shriek.



the flesh on my thighs screech with their incessant madness,
my attempts to grasp control through self-atonement -



Carving sonnets


/ hurt. weep. lie. /


At times, it drips with your venom -

/ whore. burden. ugly. /




Sometimes I can't distinguish your voice from my own.


Perhaps we're the same monster.

This makes me want to apologize for all men and then I think we're not all like that. Then I ponder more, is that even a man that would do something like that? I really don't think there is a word that can describe the intensity of such horridness...monster just seems to fall short.

Read all three of your latest tonight and could feel the pain but this one *sigh* Powerful... I am sure I cannot understand the damage things like that can do but I sure know my own contempt of those who would do such horrid things.

You are an excellent poetess and also...I respect your courage. "Tis impressive.
