There are birds that live outside my house.
There are actually quite a few,
Grouse and dove and Pheasant.
Birds that speak of me and you,
But none of their singing
Could be as quite as pleasant as you
With your offbeat tweet, and history papers past due.
Though I can attest to you being a pest,
I Love You.

I am relearning how to enjoy the simple kinds of happy.
The way music makes my stomach feel settled when it sounds just right.
I am relearning how to not let my anger drive my decisions.
I think feeling more connected with you
helps with all the hopelessness and anger.
I like to think that I am finally doing more than living form distraction to distraction.

My name is Erin
and i was *****
at the age of 7
it has taken me
14 years of my life
for those 13 words to escape
my hollow mouth
the only questions i come to now
is why
why lock me in that room
why take everything from me
my innocence
my purity
my childhood
in that room
where my family trusted you
where i trusted you
the night terrors i have to this day
still haunt my mind
like a never ending
drive in movie that plays
over
and
over
only the moon in the night sky
isnt made to be found here
there is no light in these terrors
i cant sleep this time of year
because every time i do
its you
in that room
locking the door
shutting the windows
********** me
yelling at me
every single night
i close my eyes
it has taken me 14 years
to accept the fact that i was taken by you
i have been numb ever since
left in the dust
rotting away at the core
thinking i was nothing
thinking i deserved nothing
because you took everything
but not anymore
i will recover from this
i am strong enough
i believe in myself
i believe in my own happiness
and i promsie
that when i have children one day
i will never ever let them rot at the core
i will find happiness
the darkness will not take over this time
