Wow I haven't been in here for awhile...sooo I thought I would catch up with some of you :] I am doing well. I am in school trying to keep busy. Being busy is a good thing for me. My mom(bitch) came to live with us,so that had been very tough on me,but what can I do??? I hate her!!! Maybe she will straighten up. Oh well I guess I will learn in time. Time will tell....
I have a poem :]
Her Heart was sold to the devil
She was once content
She was once blissful
She was once breathing
She was once intellectual
She was once dead
All she wanted was to be loved, and all she wanted in returnwasto be beaten
That was the life she knew
The life she grew up with
She thought that love was pain, and that pain was love
The touch of love was also the touch of evil
He got away with murder
He murdered her soul
She wants more than ever to be whole
Hiding behind her beauty
Hiding under her skin
Sometimes all she wanted was to be thin
She wanted to disappear
Her heart had thorns in it
She tried to take them out, she needed a tourniquet
She couldnt stop the pain
She couldnt make the monster go away

Great to hear from you. I am really old Lauren and I don't get along with my mom. I have to work on my boundaries every time I am near her. Like your poem, of course. Keep coming back.
Welcome back! You know we are always here for you, and always ready for one of your poems...
You know that even is she doesn't "straighten up", you have the most important job on earth... taking care of you! When I keep the world of chaos just beyond my reach, I can see it and not be part of it. It helps me to see more clearly.
So glad you are here. *smile*
Take care of you!
