in the rearview

Contributed by karoody on Sunday, 14th December 2008 @ 07:27:53 PM in AEST
Topic: anguished



west coast to east coast
sounded like fun
nice way to smooth things out
or a bittersweet goodbye
thought we would enjoy it
for at least a little while
something different and new
but i forgot how things are
i'm always that rag doll
we made it to colorado
before it got really bad
perhaps i should not complain
we nearly made it halfway
and i guess it makes good bye easier
makes it come to me more clearly
i just wish we didn't have to all hurt
all fingers are pointing at me
i'm the jerk who showed up
to make your lives miserable
not sure what i did that was so horrible
was it when i called you
asking for help with a tumor?
showing up on all these medicines
all ready disabled from a car accident
my body setting off all these alarms
that i didn't understand
but yes, i worked and i laughed
just like my body was brand new
i needed to live that way
so that i didn't break down
i could not stand being singled out
having differences exploited hurts
those needs made me horrid
brought out abuse for me
then i learned it was deeper
those days i spent growing up
trying to heal and find me
never knew it was such a crime
my love for my own father-
even that became a sin
i have been crucified
for all that i am
perhaps there just never was room
my presence on earth
the beginning of it all
i truly am sorry for all this

Ya know, Karabeara? Rag dolls are actaully very precious. They can be an awesome friend beyond any compare. Sometimes our family is defined more by how people treat us more than biology. Its unfortunate that they cannot see this. Damn bullies!!! I hope you know that there are those who care. I'm sure that friend you went there to support absolutely knows that. Too bad some people are very sight impaired!

Your poems always express emotion with absolute brilliance.

Loves ya, Karabeara!!!!

Tim
