Too Little Love
Beckon me closer, turn me away
Tell me I’m worthless, beg me to stay
Hold me so gently then rip out my hair
Tell me you hate me… Say that you care
Hit me in anger, kiss me with love
Pull me down under, lift me above
Tell me I’m perfect, then wince at the sight
Throw me to Darkness, turn on the light
Today you’d be happy. Tomorrow you’re sad
Forget all the good days, remember the bad.
Seemingly tender then clouded by rage
Blinded by freedom then thrust in a cage
Talk about feelings – I only feel pain
There’s nothing to lose and nothing to gain
Make me feel safer, toy with my trust
There’s too little love and way too much lust
Make me feel wanted, say it’s deceit
Make me fall down, help me to my feet.
Drowning in sadness, I might soon be free
Begging you softly to stop hurting me.
Ireally liked your poem. Its 4 in the morning here in portland Or and I couldnt sleep found this site been in ab abuse relationship was along time ago but the pain still seems so real, I didnt have abyone to turn to. he had made sure of that I was his prisoner mentally emotionally and sexually. sounds like you have known that kind of torture also. time does help to fade the rawness of it all. but I do feel scared from the experiance. well my cat is jumping all over the desktop I think she gets jealous of me being on here when she wants to play lol drop me a line sometime
Well written pixie
@christine Thank you for the comment; it’s good to know that someone out there relates, even though we don’t even live on the same continent. Also, tell your cat I said hi xD
@admin Thank you for reading, it really means a lot ^_^

Writing you from Lakeville, Minnesota USA. Thank you for your poem…..your words are the feelings I still carry with me from a horrible marriage. I never wanted another person to feel what your words said and am amazed at how accurate everything you wrote was. Its as if you were watching my life during those terrible years. I’ve read and re-read the poem several times now and find it kind of spiritually healing. You are very talented and have touched my life.
All the Best,
Christy
