Memories Upon Satin SheetsA Poem by ~Anita Sandlin~As I lay my head upon satin
pillows, I start to cry. So many thoughts race through my head, I sometimes wonder if I'd be better off dead. My body is laying upon satin sheets that are so smooth, yet my body feels so rough and rigid. As I run my hands over my cold naked body, I get sickened by the thoughts that race through my mind. The memories of the sexual abuse that I endured as a child keep racing back to my head. Tears keep flowing from deep inside, there are too many to hide, so I just let go and let them flow. As I lay in my satin bed I catch myself Wishing I was dead, Dead in body to match my soul. © 2011 ~Anita Sandlin~ |
