Exiled
By LunaFlower
There once was a girl
A beautiful headcase
She hid her scars with cotton and lace
Whipped repeatedly with a vengeance to match
None went too shallow, like that of a scratch
Many years later, the people bid her leave
They could no longer have her stay, they thought her naïve
They sent her on a quest, to find her true psyche
To this, she was as vengeful as the spirit of Nike
Her quest was no longer an option
For she found she was to be put up for adoption
She cut her wrist, then all she said aloud was this,
"Funny how all I wanted was a hug and a kiss."

Some finely rhymed couplets LF and like they always say: we can pick our nose, but we can't pick our parents. Things will get better - cheers! - Dan

I couldn't help but tear up at this. My step-mom used to abuse me physically and emotionally, and I often wanted to hurt her as much as she's hurt me. Very raw and powerful, dearest. I hope that you find some peace in your life. Reb:).
