Nobody hurt you. Nobody turned off the light and argued
with someboy else all night. The bad man on the moors
was only a movie you saw. Nobody locked the door..

Your questions were always answered fully. No. That didn't occur.
You couldn't sing anyway, cared less. The moment's a
blur, a film fun
laughing itself to death in the coal fire. Anyone's guess.

Nobody forced you. You wanted to go that day. Begged.
You chose
the dress. Here are the pictures, look at you. Look at us all,
smiling and waving, younger. The whole thing is inside
your head.

What you recall are impressions; we have the facts. We
called the tune.
The secret police of your childhood were older and wiser than you, bigger
than you. Call back the sound of their voices. Boom.
Boom. Boom.

Nobody sent you away. That was an extra holiday, with people
you seemed to like. They were firm, there was nothing to fear.
There was none but yourself to blame if it ended in tears.

What does it matter now? No, no, nobody left the
scars of sin
on your soul and laid you wide open for Hell. You were loved.
Always. We did what was best. We remember your childhood well.

Nice!
I like that one



*a hopeless reality lost, i fear no more the pain i bring*

That was different, but different is good, no one should follow the lines of anothers work. All of the greatest of poets wrote in their own direction, and one day you might be a part of that list. Nice work and welcome to the Forum.

Stunning poem that grabs the attention and calls out to the bitter tendrils of humanity that society likes to hide away. In truth your words be spoken and that is the greatest gift that any could give. You have talent. Welcome to the forums and i cannot wait to read more

What can I say that hasn't already been said? All I can do is agree that you are a unigue writer and that a good deal of great poetry is so because it captures truth in such a way that everyone can relate... it is evident that such truths have been depicted in your piece her... I too look forward to reading more..
