Life and HopeA Poem by Elsie
No one can see my pain within me
How can any realize how the rapes, the molestation, the abuse, or even being used Have effected my daily living No one understand how hard it is to live your live Afraid that the next person you date will be like those who hurt you Never really trust people Cause you are afraid that you will never be good enough That you deserved what they did to you Yet you know that there is nothing in this world You would wish more then to know why But sadly you know that all your why questions will never be answered You wake up in the morning and wonder why There are times when you have to push yourself out of bed Cause you just don't feel like facing the world today You keep pushing forward in life cause you know That there is someone out there that is far off worse then you where ever Sadly though what people can't understand or even see That all you have been through has changed who you are How you look upon the world It does not matter how many people tell you that they love you It does not matter how many people tell you that they won't hurt you It does not matter how many people tell you that you can trust them Nothing matters to you anymore All you can do is just keep on pushing forward You know that you keep looking for the day that your pain will be wiped away That you will be able to leave your home without all your fears following you Just that you can't see that coming No matter how many times you wish that you could wipe away everything in your past To be able to have a normal relationship You know that deep down in your soul that you probably never change it Cause you learn so much about those around you You learned how to be so strong that it hard for you to be weak You learned how to never ask for help Cause that show weakness, but then you see When you do actually need the help you can't ask it For you are too afraid to admit that you are only human That you need the love that will love you for you You know that the people you are around know that you are broken That no matter how much you try you can't be fixed They need to realize that no matter what You are who you are and nothing anyone can say will change that. It may be hard to see now, but I am not the person I was growing up I have changed greatly through everything I have been Even when I believe that the only thing I really want to do is give up I know I can't give up I must keep fighting forward in hopes to find the answer to a simple but most difficult question to answer "Why" I keep on pushing forward in hopes that my pain will be wiped away I don't want people to feel sorry for me I don't want people to say "I am sorry for what you through and I understand" I don't want people trying to fix me since I am broken What I want is someone who will understand My fears and failures but love me all the same Who accpets that what I have been through but still loves me the same I don't want someone who loves me the most and just for what they want I want someone who see me and knows it will take time That is what I want, but who knows what the future holds
