� Posed to endure � 2006-06-15 � 4:03 p.m. �
~It wasn't my surface most defiled...
Head at your feet, fool to your crown, fist on my plate and I swallowed it down.
Enmity gauged, united by fear... I tried to endure what I could not forgive.~
I'm rattled by what I didn't expect... but sudden need... need I can't quantify... or explain.
A need I don't share with anyone. It's only mine.
I feel 16 again... with a bloody nose and a bruised back.
I feel his foot prints on my skin... ten years too late and it sort of makes sense this time...
I guess it was the beatings that made me wise...
