Eliza
I was sat
Waiting for him
And it hit me
How it will be
When we are
Together

Then I realised
I am here
And he is not
'How do I live
Without him'
I thought

I am alive!
I'm doing it
I'm doing it
it's happening
I realised
I am doing just fine

What a daze she was in...
Wasn't it all just a dream?
Take me back to carefree times
where no ties were made
and friendship was free,
feelings were buried
and love was slow.
Here in the morning gloaming
burning
my skin flaming
as I imagine red kisses
from smouldering lips!

How easily
in anticipation
you make me whimper
before with pleasure
making me simper -
each kiss
another hot coal
placed on my rawness
with searing softness.

Nobody
I grew up in a religious home,
they implemented this dream
that one day ill be come a priest
And it was the only way to make them happy.

I lived this silly dream up until the end of 5th grade when i realized,
There is no god.

Fore how can a man of such holy stature commit all these heinous crimes against his own "children".
I was 10 years old when i realized i had enough, that my voice needed to be heard.

They dont talk about little boys getting molested, almost intentionally looking away as if it never happens.

Us boys are taught a long list of rules from a young age to never cry, never show fear, never back down, just a whole lot of nevers.

But I was never taught to deal with a grown man inside me.

Believe me it hurt, it hurt more than any pain i have felt to this day.
What made it worse was the one inside me, my father.

At first it started off innocent enough, he was drunk and didnt know what he was doing.
But it soon progressed into a side business he ran under the table
"20 dollars, 20 mins"

At 8 years old, brandy became my best friend. She was the only thing that numbed my pain, although forced down my throat so I wont fight back, I learned to enjoy the burn.

A year later i went to my first party.
Months of getting beat down and broke all was ment for this day.

23 guys; one boy.
I still feel your touch, and it burns.
I hate myself for looking exactly like you father.

Dear Kewan

I miss you
I really do
And this isn't a cry out because I'm lonely
Or feeling sorry for myself
I miss you
I miss the you who was so in love with me
Who wouldn't give up in arguments
I miss the you I would get irritated with
Because I wasn't ready for a relationship
I miss the you I'd scream at
And push away
When all you wanted to do was love me
Oh Kewan
I miss you
And pushed you over the edge
Please don't meet someone
Please
Please wait for me
Wait for me to heal properly this year
All I ever needed was time
All I ever needed was time alone
Before you stepped in the moment he left
I needed to grieve him
I never had a chance to
We rushed into a relationship
Too fast
Kewan please wait for me
Please
We had wrong timing
That was all
God
Please let him see what I see now
Please God
Please let him miss me
Please please please
Come back to me

Wrong timing
It ruins
Everything
Why couldn't it be a few months later?
Why
Why
Why
Elizabeth Burns Aug 2018
Please God
Please God
Don't let him meet someone
Please let him wait for me to heal
Please
It was wrong timing God
Please
