You ~:~ A Poem.
Well, I stink at poetry. Not my forte AT ALL. But I decided to take another crack at it. And this is a rarity for me, since I tend to avoid it. So please be gentle with moi. :P And this was written very quickly, without much thought. I just wanted to see how it would go.

This poem's about a victim in an abusive relationship. It's one of the things that I'm passionate about - be it woman's abuse, child abuse, or animal cruelty. I wrote it for all those young women (and men! Men can be stuck in them too, but not as often) out there who are struggling within the hardships of an abusive relationship - be it a verbal one, a physical one, or a sexual one. You can get out, and you AREN'T alone. Nobody deserves to be treated in that way, by ANY means. Nothing is your fault, and you CAN move on without your partner - even if it is with great difficulty.

Here we go... Meh, all I can say is I hope you enjoy this. =/ Oh, and this is to make up to Bonnie. ^^ Since I can't think of anything for the victory topic. :P

OH, W00T, YOU GUYZ. This made top blogs! >: D Thanx so much! ^^ <3 u all!

You


You showered me with compliments.
[And I bathed within them…]

You said nothing would ever tear us apart.
[And I agreed]

You made me feel like I was dreaming.
[Or was something else coming…?]

Then, as we got further into things, it all started to change.
[I only just turned twenty, you know…]

You treated me with disrespect.
[I thought I deserved it…]

You treated me like I deserved hell.
[Do you remember when you said you wanted me dead…?]

You took me by the wrists, slammed me hard against the wall.
[The bruises are still there, you know…]

You spat insults at me as I crumbled to the ground.
[I believed them…]

You pressured me for sex.
[And I succumbed to it…]

You threatened me.
[I grew afraid and promised I wouldn’t go]

You toyed with my mind.
[And left me lost]

And you played with my emotions.
[To believe I couldn’t live without you]

You lied to me.
[And lost my trust]

You blamed me for things that weren’t even my fault.
[When all along, they were yours]

I thought I deserved better.
[You said I already have the best]

You used my words against me.
[Why must you keep pointing your finger at me…?]

I said I couldn’t take it anymore.
[You claimed that you did nothing]

When you saw me packing my bags, you clung desperately to me.
[And whispered into my ear how much you loved me]

And I said I loved you, too…




…Save me from this hell…
…I can’t resume this abuse…
…I won’t show the scars…
…Proof of when you let loose…

…People say there is life after all this pain…
…I don’t know how much more I can take…
…I’ll silence my screams of agony…
…And my wails and cries of how much my body aches…

…It’s only a matter of time before you break…
…Until then, I’ll ignore the bruises…
…Faded red, yellow, purple, and blue…
…And I’ll surely overuse the excuses…

…Through tear filled eyes, I’ll embrace you tonight.
…I’ll sing a silent song…
…I’ll plead to God, asking for a day…
…Where I can forget this nightmare that’s been haunting me for so long…

is it over yet?
howdy howdy all
Okay so things are definitely looking up. I found an apartment that I like and can afford on my meager earnings. I dont move in until September 1st but that gives me a chance to get all of my utilities in order, speaking of which...
I was able to get the electricity set up for the move in day (well, 2 days before move in actually as they dont connect utilities on the weekends--who knew?). There was no deposit for the electricity which frees up 300 big ones my friends! So I need to transfer my phone and internet service which should go smoothly (cross your fingers) and I have already changed my address with the Post Office and various publications that I simply can't do without. In the interim I have been staying with 2 friends in particular. I bounce back and forth between the 2 so as to allow them some semblance of privacy and vacation from my presence (dont want to wear out any welcomes ya know).
I was a bit down because I had to move so suddenly and finding a place to live seemed daunting without a roommate to absorb half of the costs. I mean the roomies told me that they planned to be out by August 15th and since it was the second to last week of July at the time I needed to make arrangements with the quickness which would have been cool had I not just paid off all my debt thinking that I would be able to rely on my next check to get me through August. The utilities were not in my name and so there was the added incentive of not wanting to sit in a hot, dark apartment until September (were I able to cover the rent up until then, which I was not if I wanted to be able to pay a deposit on a new place) instead I had to quickly rent a Uhaul which required a deposit and then there was the mileage fee since I was not moving on a weekend. It was a pretty penny to say the least. My friends Torridgirl, the Cocoa Goddess and my guy pals the MastaSwordsman and Minestine were able help me pack and Move at a moments notice and I was out by August 1st. I stored all of my crap in my mother's garage and grabbed some floor at Torridgirls place since it was within walking distance to my job (turns out I am to be living in the Same apartment complex as she, which she referred me to and so she gets a monetary break on her rent once I sign a lease and so the fun begins!!!)
Classes begin on the 25th and it is a bit sucky that I will not be all moved in before then but hey, what can you do? The coolest part of this is the fact that I can decorate the entire place as I like, there will be no pet hair or smell (although the CATS were really adorable and I mill miss them like the dickens), and then there is the entertaining that I used to do when I lived alone. My ANNUAL Halloween party is gonna be bonkers friends! I will have to invite my neighbors so that the noise will be tolerated but I get to dress up in fun duds, drink and be merry! WOO Hoo!
Now if I could just get all of these dang short stories out of idea form and into a workable outline everything would be gravy-- I have had a bit of a block for the last few weeks considering my predicament but now that things have been ironed out my writer's mind wont stop racing...
Oh yeah a recruiter for a community college system asked me to get my resume to her ASAP, they may have some Teachers Assistant opportunities available while I finish my master's---aint that somethin'
Goddess Bless!
 
 
 

   
Confessions and regrets

I have to say, I have always been sort of an ass, people seemed to always look up to me and seemed to expect me to lead and make all the decisions etc. I think I started taking a lot of the people in my life for granted. Relationships came easy, and went easy. I felt like no one I knew was as smart as me.

 

Now, I find I am not getting much attention from anyone anymore, guess I am getting what I deserved. No one is calling, people are avoiding me. I guess, I don't care, maybe it just means it is time from me to move on, move somewhere else and start another life, I am not sure.

 

I don't want any sympathy, I know what I have to do, just have to not be obnoxious and self-centered anymore.  I just felt like I needed to come clean, that is all.

 
 
   
 

I like to move it, move it
Well, it looks like it has been a pretty long time since I last posted. I will be moving soon [aah the life of being in the army, always moving] and that move is coming up pretty soon, though I have no dates. Hopeing that it will be in the beginning of June, but I have learned if you hope for stuff in the army they tend to give the opposite. This is just one more step getting closer to home back in the states. 8 more months till home and I can't way, really counting down the months.
 
 
 

   
(no subject)

IMOVE WITH ONE THOUGHT

i move with one heart

 i move with all my strength

 but am i really telling the truth

 beacuse my mind is so confuzed with all these thoughts

to walk is jsut a primarial instinct

and my strength fails me most frequently

but ill still move on

although my held up head may falter

and my thoughts may wonder

i must still go on

 pretending in this sherade

everthings fine, ill find my own time to shine

but for now ill still move one

help you through

no need to worry

ive only let my gard down

a couple moments in time...in time

 So i move with one thought

i move with one heart

i move with all my strength

or at least ive been trained so well

that it just seems so

for its just an act

just another role to play, my set time on stage

my life just a script, this solitary page

blank and white and pristine in its innocence

thats how you will see it

to me

i see

 i remember

some of the thoughts

that this page hoped to hold,

and deliver to the world

woven throught time

just keep on moving

on

and

on

ive set my foot on the concrete line

and looked over the imaginary edge

that one we will defiantly remember,

when the end of the concrete starts

and

so just to make sure

i move with one thought

i move with one heart

i move with all my strength

but am i really

just barely

just holding

on

just moving because i must

or have i

will i

did i

ever

plan and write my life

on a

single

solitary

page

reluctent to deliver to the world.
