Fighting to be Free

Fighting to be Free

Who gave you the right

Who gave you the say

To play with my mind

In your sadistic ways?

To mold it, to engrain

Dirty wash my pure brain

You tied me and you caged me

Said you owned me I’m not free

Planting danger and defeat

Self loathing and self hate

To program and dictate

As if you control my fate

But

What goes in must come out

Despite the methods that you tout

Despite your dirty threats

You lost your satanic bet

You lost control over me

It’s my mind breaking free

We’re doing this my way

You no longer have a say

Trained to remember the worst

And erase who I was first

So

Let me set the record straight

You sorry bastards sons of hate

It’s Me you’re hearing from

It’s Me who’s breathing through

The worst horrors ever done

The most acute pain inflicted

Don’t you get it yet?

You are evicted!

My God has got me covered

He’s always had my back

His love is shining through

Where yours so sorely lacked

So take your pathetic lies

That I will always lose

All the mind tripping

On me you tried to use

And Know This:

Every drop of blood

Every fallen tear

Every suffocation

And every form of fear

Every death buried

And every beauty crushed

Every hope shattered

Every baby hushed

Is remembered

And will be extracted from you

That is the power of my God

There’s no place in the World

You can hide from His justice

Thank you Susan! It is a bazaar history I have, and uncomfortable for some, but I'm tired of bearing shame for what these men did to me. It's theirs and i'm fighting hard to extricate myself from their hold. Certain times of year are especially triggering, so it's important to exercise my voice :-)

Jenny,

Just as you are conveying in this powerfully written poem. We,(man and woman) all are free in our own rights, its the,(chovernist) that don't understand, nor can they comprehend the definition of the word, that keeps those,(such as yourself and we your readers),that stand to speak out for themselves and against this practice of self control, of the mind, body and soul of another, whom can't grasp the fact, that no one was placed here on this earth to puppeteer anyone else. A woman has just as many rights as any man, if not more and should and always, needs to be treated, as the cream of our crops and placed on a pedestal of the highest standards, care and respect. Any man, that thinks differently, don't understand the meaning of a true relationship, with someone you claim to love are be in love with, (you don't hurt)....Well written poem and your meaning for its write, should be commended by all that reads its message....Keep your head up and voice as loud as this poem, sooner are later they will be a thing of the past, as long as voices such as yours, keeps the topic of this behavior, hot and on the press....Great Job... 

Kindest regards,

Jim

Jim, what beautiful words you have shared, full of empathy and insight! I think you should write more on topics and post them as essays..you are a brilliant writer. I replied to your comments a few days ago but it obviously didn't get saved, I'm sorry for only just now noticing the lack of a response to your beautiful feedback. Thanks again for this,
Jenny

Hi Jenny,

My response is "WOW", you so elegantly presented yourself, quite humbally but with a (quite) yet powerfully, "spoken out," manner. I thank you immensely .Your poems has a manner of telling the stories of the heart, continually reguiring resolution, to the many unanswered, affirmative questions in life,by addressing all defirmative answers, of and where, the many "free lips," refuse to ponder or mutter.You are a great,( not only),  poet but writer as well and we,(your readers), will continue, to enjoy reading your, inspiring works.... 

Thanks Again,

Jimmy
