Touching Me (Redo)

Touching Me (Redo)

A Poem by Emma Marie Taylor

Touching Me



I wake up screaming
Tears steam down my face
I've been dreaming
Of a horrible place

My skin burns at the chill of air
Goosebumps freckle me, coldened scare

My body feels naked
But clothes stick to my skin
I shutter and sob
At the thought of such sin

I feel raw and open
Body taken, shattered, broken
Flashes of his hot warm skin
Torture my brain and I sob at the sin

Touching me

Seeing me
How could he do that?
How could he be such a heartless rat?

Flashes of my screaming, my voice cracked and hoarse
His eyes, empty without one spark of remorse
Bloodied and battered
Skin rubbed, shattered

No one will listen
No one can see
The evil he has used inside of me

The second stanza was my favorite part. It gave a really good chilling feeling. Over all, I thought the piece was really well put together. It clearly brought across the feeling of being opressed by some force, be it a person or an event or emotion. Or monster for that matter. Either way, the feeling of abuse come through and the mental anguish involved. Well penned!

Very beautiful. It saddens me to know that so many people have been affected by this evil he has used but unfortunately more times than not the victim goes unheard or the cries for help go unspoken. Thanks for sharing such an intense and honest poem.

Beautiful! I think this is how a lot of victimless feel.. Hopeless and forgotten, like no one cares. Very powerful write.

"I wake up screaming
Tears steam down my face"
In that part of the first stanza, I believe you meant stream instead of steam.
Once again, beautiful poem (:
