Our castle stands atop the hills
And offers strength of spirit
Place your hand little one unto mine
And I shall lead you to it.
***************
The family castle is now your home
The stones grow ever stronger
For the castle’s built on love and hope
Alone you are no longer.
*****************
Behind these walls that rise up high
Lies a garden lush and green
It’s offerings bountiful as the sea
And beauty yet unseen.
*******************
Drink the waters that beckon you near
They’ll fill your heart with hope
Feast on the knowledge offered here
For that will help you cope.
*****************
Our fires will fill your soul with warmth
To cast off the chill outside
Yet stay not here within these walls
They were not built to hide.
****************
Swing wide the gates so you can see
The world lie at your feet
For without what hides beyond
The castle’s incomplete.
*****************
Mount our stallion strong and true
For he shall be your guide
His legs have carried those of us
Who’ve ventured far outside.
***************
Fear not what you do not yet know
Lead on and find your star
Fill your pack with experience
That you shall gain afar.
**************
The good times will outnumber bad
Though sometimes you shall fall
It’s at that time that you should seek
The strength of the castle wall.
*****************
For no matter the path you choose to take
No matter the strength of tides
You need only look inside your heart
For that’s where the castle resides.

This poem touched my heart because it was written by the victim of a rapist and I know how she feels
I know the pain that she will live with all her life. Rapists and abusers are the dregs of society and no one can truly understand the pain that they cause unless they have suffered it themselves.
**********************************************
Here I stand,
alone and afraid;
feeling filthy and unwanted.
********
he took my soul;
my virginity;
my life;
my hopes;
my dreams.
********
I am nothing now.
nothing but a lost wanderer.
wandering this cruel world
thinking why he did what he did, to me.
************
I didn’t deserve this punishment.
didn’t deserve it at all.
but when he grabbed me and began ripping my dignity away bit by bit,
the fear arose within me.
*************
he touched me over and over.
told me I would soon die.
told me I was a “whore”.
but why?
*************
in a way, I did die.
in a way, I am still here.
a lost wanderer.
alone and afraid.

I had a dream I was kneeling, at fifteen crosses on the hill
Not a whisper from the trees, everything was still,
I felt a sadness in my heart, an empty kind of pain,
Fifteen souls had gone away, only memories remained.
I tried to cry out to ease my grief,
Lifted my hands to heaven, prayed God’s relief.
Not a sound or a word, emptiness abounds,
My sorrow overcoming, I began to drown.
Such bitter suffocation, I wish someone could hear,
Why we let this happen , in my dream nothing was clear.
I shook my fist to heaven and begged for reasons why,
But only silence spoke, offering no reply.
No sound came from my lips even as I screamed,
I prayed it’s just a nightmare, an awful kind of dream.
Then I heard a choir of angels beckoning from above.
“The world is reaping hatred,”
“Because the world’s not sowing love.”
“You should embrace each other’s differences no matter what they may be,”
“And enlighten each other with the hope of peace and unity.”
When the angel finished speaking, she ended with a sigh,
Gazing down at fifteen crosses of fifteen souls who said goodbye.
Then the heavens opened up, the angels giving way,
up to the gates of heaven, Amazing grace began to play.
And as they left this Earthly realm the angels were downhearted
looking back at fifteen crosses of the recently departed.
A soft rain began falling, but no cloud was in the sky,
Then Jesus whispered to me, “This is how the angels cry.”

When all about you is black with gloom,
And all you feel is pending doom.
When your bones are racked with grim despair,
When every breath is a gasp for air.
Keep on going, though you need to grope,
For around the bend is a ray of hope.
************
A ray of hope is perhaps all that’s left,
As your will to live has been bereft.
You’ve lost it all, it’s just no use!
You can end it all, you need no excuse.
But throw away that piece of rope,
And give yourself a chance of hope.
**********
Just give yourself another day,
Brushing aside what your thoughts may say.
This is your life and you can make a new start,
By ignoring the brain – just follow the heart.
Taking baby steps in order to cope,
And minute by minute you’ll build on your hope.
**********
Build on your hope,. one day at a time,
Though the road be steep and hard to climb.
The hurts of the past – they should be dead.
The fears of the future are all in your head.
Just live in the present and refuse to mope
Your life will sparkle for you’re living in hope.

The hardest thing I ever did
Was tell you we were through,
But given the circumstance
What else could I do?
We talked for hours of trivial things
Well into the night,
And as we talked it came to me
I had to give up the fight.
I took a breath and closed my eyes
And said that you was free
Tomorrow in the light of day
You’d find no trace of me.
How will I survive without you
My futures filled with dread,
You may have gone out of my life
But you are still in my heart and in my head.
I couldn’t keep you prisoner
You needed to be free,
To live your life the way you want,
And there was no room for me.
I had to be the strong one
I had to let you go,
But my darling how much I love you,
You will never know.
You’ll never see the tears I cried
My heart is broken into two,
How will I get through another day
Now that I have lost you?
Take my heart and keep it
It is at home with you
I had to give you freedom
It was all that I could do

The first time that I saw you I knew you were the one for me,
And yet I knew deep in my heart that this could never be,
I worshipped every part of you, your face, your smile, your touch
But I could never let you know that I wanted you so much.
I couldn’t bear the pain inside and feared your rejection,
I knew that you could not love me, you just saw my imperfection,
Then one day you your turned your head to glance
And for a single moment I thought there was a chance.
Oh what sort of fool was I to think this could be
To imagine for a moment that you could love some one like me.
And yet at night I’d close my eyes and hold you in my heart
And I would hope against all hope that we would never part.
I gave you everything I could and then one day awoke
To be told that all I was to you was just one great big joke.
You were always in my thoughts, and forever in my heart
Your voice was always in my head although we were apart.
I’d hold you in my arms at night and kiss your gentle face,
But when I woke at morning time of you there’d be no trace.
You were with another and getting on with life
I married another and you got yourself a wife.
My love for you has never died it stays here in my heart,
And it is because of this that we must stay apart.
There’s nothing left to give to you that you would want from me
So the only thing that I can do for you is at last let you be free.

Why spend your life dreaming?
Wishing things would change,
Why is it that everything you want
Is out of your price range.
Have you not discovered the secret yet?
You can have whatever you choose,
The power lies within you,
Its up to you whether you win or lose.
If you think that you can’t do it,
Then you’ll never ever try,
And you will just be standing there
Counting the days that go by.
If you think that you deserve it
And hold that thought in your heart,
The only thing you need to do
Is make the reality start.
Just take the first step to your future
And leave your failures behind,
And you will find that very soon
You’ll be living a life of a different kind.
So hold on to your dream now,
Plant your feet firmly on the ground,
Take a leap of faith and you wil find
Love makes the world go round

My love is with you as you sleep
I’ll float into your head
I’ll keep a tender watch over you
I’ll be sitting on your bed,
As you stir I’ll fade away
You won’t know that I was near
To keep you safe throughout the night
And take away your fear.
My Love for you is ever there
It will never go astray
It stays with you throughout the night
Then I’ll hide away
I will return tonight my love
To watch you as you sleep
You will never be alone my love
My vigil I will keep.
So go to sleep tonight my love
And let your sleep be sound
For love will always keep you safe
Love makes the world go round.

I think it better that in times like these
A poet’s mouth be silent, for in truth
We have no gift to set a statesman right;
He has had enough of meddling who can please
A young girl in the adolescence of her youth,
Or an old man upon a winter’s night.
