Sinful Hands.

Post by Closeyclo »

Look how your sinful hands tainted me.
Your fingertips leaving tendrils of fire as you traced my skin.
Searing me everywhere.
I still smell the smoke.
The burn is still as raw as the first day.
Look at the mess those sinful hands made.
As you shattered me with no regard.
Look at the state of my fragile heart.
Broken and barely beating underneath your feet.
Those sinful hands were all the wrong.
Holding my mouth closed tight to stop from screaming.
Touching all the parts of me too young to be known.
Defiling a soul that could have been so much more.
Leaving a million scars, just not on flesh.
Look at the damage your sinful hands created.
A tear streaked face and silent screams.
I remember your hands more than your face.
I feel like they hold my wrists bound up so tightly.
I might never escape them.

I just want to tell you that this resonates with me very deeply. I’m sorry that you had to go through what they did to you. Just know that I am here with you and for you within that pain.
I want to be as good of a person as my dog thinks I am.

Hi!
I am so sorry that it resonates with you, because I really hate to know that others are going through or know such pain, but if pain we must go through then I am glad to have others who know it to help me through, and I am happy to know it to help others. I am here for you also! Thank you so much!
Take care!

Closeyco your poetry is beautiful, not what you write about but how to express what you are feeling.

Do you find it helps you to express it?

Hey! Thank you so much for that reply!
I find I express it better in writing than any other way. When I speak verbally I get panicky and stressed out, I trip over all of my words and worry about them not making sense. But writing comes easily to me, and it helps me sort out what I'm feeling.
Do you write ? I assume you read given your wonderful username! I'm a big reader too! Probably why I write with so much more ease than speaking:-)
I hope you are okay and having a lovely day!
Take care.

Hi Closeyco yes I love to read as can loss myself in books.
I do write but not poetry or anything creative just what I’m feeling or thinking more like journaling as like you find it easier to write what I’m feeling than speak it but do love to draw again as find it easier drawing as sometimes can’t find the words.
