Abuse

A Poem by ShannielleFaith
"

Self explanatory, really.

"
I graced my fingertips through danger.
The harsher you whispered,
things only got stranger.
It started with a peck on the lips.

I could feel it lying close to me
as the fear rose in my throat.
The horror, the pain, the sweet agony,
and you never heard me say, "no."

This is the part where I turn away,
when you tell me how pure I can be.
This is the part where I've had enough,
but you've only just begun.

I put myself through this.
I tell myself I'm fine.
Pick myself up. Brush the dirt off.
It's what I get for not walking the line.

This sounds like song lyrics in my head even though I know there is no actual structure to it. I'm sorry. I can't write proper songs :/

Nice and touching....
''The horror, the pain, the sweet agony,
and you never heard me say, "no.'' these lines says so much.Don't know though how personal it is......but thanks for sharing, a nice read.

New to the site and really to letting strangers read my writing. It's writing like this that makes me want to do it. I know what it's like and I know how vulnerable you can feel putting it out there for someone to see. This is great., keep it up!
