Life As I Knew It

You made my heart
bleed for clarity
which made my soul
drown in sorrow...

You created a world
unimaginable, and
blew my dreams into
the wind...

You carried my beauty
a thousand miles away
and dropped it into
the ocean...

You took my words
to the black raven
who took them to
her young...

You broke my bones
and smashed my
dreams, though you
continued to laugh...

You made my life
a living hell, and
all you could think of
was,”I need another drink.”

This peice is dedicated to abused to children "living" across the U.S. I recently read "A Child Called IT", by Dave Pelzer, and fell in love with the idea(not that it's a good thing).
