Hi all,
I haven't written in so long. But I decided to get back into it. As I m a religious Jew I do not sing for men...but I DO for women!
Let me know what you guys think...is this something I should pursue? PLEASE be honest....
Also...please tell me if anything is too graphic/violent.
Thanks! Love, Ruch
FILLED WITH LOVE
I have a soul
I have a heart
I have a hole
An empty space
Where you touched me
Where you hurt me
Where you killed me
I have a soul
I have a heart
I have a hole
An empty space
Where you choked me
Where you damaged me
Where you used me
I have a soul
I have a heart
I have a hope
A new space
Where I left you
Where I left you
Where I left you
I have a soul
I have a heart
I have a hope
A beautiful space
Where I love me
Where I love me
Where I love me
I have a soul
A wonderful soul
A beautiful soul
I have a heart
A strong heart
A full heart
I had a hole
But it is full now
So very full now
A lovely space
Filled with love

I think it's absolutely beautiful. You have *the* knack for poetry... like me . I'm a poet, too, but I haven't written in oh so long.
Yes, pursue it. It's beautiful.

Ruchie it that is so beautiful! Of course pursue it. It takes alot of guts sharing something that comes from the inside with others, so good for you! If you have anything else that you would like to share, I would love to see it, either on the boards or in my inbox!

I was so afraid it was inappropriate to post this here...and after I sent it i kept thinking "It's NOT that good...!"
Thank you all for supporting me. Right now...you're all literally my lifeline. I don't have my parents support (obviously as they knew I was being abused and did nothing about it--for years!) and I don't have friends in the community.
G-d bless Heather and all of you on these boards!
With love and gratitude,
Ruch

Hi Gerry,
I AM sad.
I am learning that since I was a CHILD I have been pushing down the abuse and the memories and blaming myself in order to survive. I am finally safe enough with my husband to remember what happened to accept that it was not my fault that I was ABUSED and that my paretns neglected to do anything about it.
This is a VERY difficult time for me. But I am storng, I am a survivor, and I wil get through it. I need to let it all out though in order to get on with my life.
I WAS a victim. But now I am a SURVIVOR. And that makes all the difference in the world!
Send me lots of hugs...cause it's a painful road I'm travelin'
Lots of love, Ruch
