Hey everyone

Hi lovely people.. so i joined a womans group for rape survivors back in september after my one on one therapy finished. I suffered a few nightmares here and there when i was going to one on one therapy but nothing severe. Also iv not long ago upped my citaloplam dose to deal with the anxiety...

Danger lurks in front of me

My innocence snatched away
Forced into an adult world

Seeing life through...

Innocence lost
As Sun turns to frost
Seasons come and go...
Her mind is a no show
The girl is stuck in a tornado
Her life falling apart like playdoh

Telling her self that didnt happen to me
Im an innocent kid
The girl who only knew...

Thank you so much @AnnaC. I won't feel intimidated not to put in words how I feel just because someone finds it "offensive" I hope nobody else feels discouraged either xx
Im sorry you take offense to me expressing pain i have felt through poetry. I did not mean to offend watsoever its just my own theraputic way of getting my feelings out. I posted it as i thought it might give comfort to others who have had similar experiences. As @RussH said not once have i...

I dont know why you carry that smile on your face
You should be grimacing instead with disgrace
Your nothing but a bully
A coward in disguise
You cant pull the wool over my eyes
I dont know how you can live with yourself with
all your secrets and lies
Your nothing but a wolf in sheeps clothing...
