From The Drawing Board Of A Child's Mind

by Catherine Anne - Capricorn


From the drawing board
Of a child's mind
Comes dimented pictures
Violent and graphic
Sexually explicit
Hidden in dark corners
Tossed out of site
Disregarded and unimportant
Discreetly secret
And pushed away
Groping in the darkness
Tearing at my soul
Burning through my lips
Killing to say No
Feeling like a whore 
Without the interesting pay
Wandering around lost
Never knowing the right way
Needing stability
Needing someone to love
Needing someone's compassion
Free as a dove
Tied up in knows 
Unable to cut free
Stripped naked
On my knees
Tearing at barbed wire
Screaming out in pain
Forced upon my body
Permanantly scarred and maimed
Cant say anything
Words wont come out
Youth and innocense gone
Given without a doubt
Covered and cold
Cant stop moving
Hear a voice in the dark
Quiet and soothing

Reason for writing:

    
deep inner termoil, and bad spelling.  I dont know, it just came out.  Seriously. It's like  channeling or something.
