Forgive And Forget

[KieraPaiige]

For years i sat and wondered,

why my life was this way..

nothing was making sense to me,

so young my childhood was taken away.

i tried to think of reasons why you hurt me so,

18 now wild and free, i think i finally know.

i wasnt the easiest to handle,

but never did i complain.

for years i feared the sound of your voice,

as you screamed out my name.

as quickly as i could id hide away.

underneath my bed.

untill i felt you drag me out,

hitting at my head.

you told me to be quite,

tears rolling down my cheeks.

every time worse than the last,

Black Bruises lasting for weeks.

how could you be so mean?

a father you are not..

forgive and forget - the saying i like the most.

but this will not be forgot

This brings back memories that cannot be forgotten.  My heart goes out to the person this poem is about.  You as the writer have done very well.  Not too long, not too short, flows well and to the point.

 

As a work of art, I like it.

 

Take care

The best poem I've seen so far. Loved how you wrote it, and conveyed genuine feelings simultaneously. ^__^

although i like the words, and how you ryme.

the undertone, to this broken childhood

is more than chilling, and simply vile

hath sets my thoughts to wonder,

how man can be so cruel,

these people from the bowel of hell,

dont deserve a bowl of grool.

 

get it out move on

Hey, Kiera

 

I feel what you are describing in this piece, I really like this. Although how dark it feels and how horrific the situation is. It really is a well written piece of literature. I love the wording, a few spelling mistakes, but nothing major. Keep it up!
