One year on
By Lylani
Its an anger so fierce
That no scream could be loud enough
I
could shatter your eardrums
But you wouldn't feel even a gimpse of
what I do
No
No cut
Nor gouge
Nor punch
Is hard
enough
Deep enough
Bloody enough
To quench this rage
The indignity
Injustice
Inhumanity of it
Stills me
The white hot venom fills me
I am paralised by it
Coursing
through my viens
Bathing my flesh in acid
A pain so deep
I dare not cry out
For fear even the heavens may fall
Gods
become mortal
In the devils reign
Flames forever lapping at
my skin
Heart forced through a seive of razor wire
For this was
your gift to me
But I seek no revenge
Nor retribution
So
if you see calm
It is because i am stone to you now
Shrouded
and defient
I have not forgotten

Oh wow! The steel indifferance in this really sums up the anger; which really sums up the pain. Not so much like the writes you usually post, but surely worth reading, and reading into. Well done, lady... ^V^

A superbly stated admonishment and profession of what went before, yet possibly lost in times passed - but then some thing cannot be forgotten, or forgiven. Srongly said, cheers!
