Poem -
The groomer
Child grooming
Lain dormant behind your computer screen,Â
Creating your perfect scene.
Preying on the young,Â
Unable to tame his poisonous tongue.
A master of manipulation,
A compulsive fixation.Â
A mask of morality,Â
A hidden brutality.Â
They see kindness,
But the path you lead is utter blindness.
They see hope,
But you drag them down a sheer slope.Â
Vulnerability attracts you,
Hoping they stick to you like glue.Â
You notice their daddy isn’t around,
Look at how many lies they’ve downed.Â
Inside your world,
You have them furled.Â
There’s no going back,
You have the special knack.Â
They’ve made a pact,
Now it’s times to act.Â
He’s on his way,Â
He wants to play.

A bold write up for a taboo topic.
BRAVO
Thank you so much for your feedback. It’s something that has to be said, in simple terms. ?
I really liked the format of this poem. Your poetry is very powerful. It's hard to read at times, mostly because I understand -- all too much. I'm 47, and I survived an event as a child and as an adult. I get flashes of images of tragedies, they roll over my tired eyes, the memories beg me to look at them again and again until I’m ready to scream, leave me alone past memories.
Today will be better than yesterday and one day, maybe the bad memories will be only a trail of the person you were before the bad experience. Before the pain. Just before, your spirit was compromised. Good work – made me think and made me shed a tear. Leave the puddles of the past alone on dark days, then, like a solider you can handle them all again. If you have support, you can achieve anything in life you want to obtain. That is my belief.
I hope and pray, your new year will reflect strenght of the writer you were, the writer you are and the writer you wish to become. It's all possible. Keep writing!Â
Thank you very much for
the review! And thank you for sharing this with me! It can be very challenging at times, but it’s good to speak to people and write it out too!Â
