On Wednesday November 11, 2009 my partner beat me up. This poem was written while in Arts Appreciation at Harcourt House, Edmonton, Alberta. He was arrested and charge for attack. I have since decided to reconcil with him. This may upset or get some of my friends upset. I am satisfied with his apologies, a plan to make changes through counselling individually and as a couple, and his desire to deal with his addictions through support groups such as: AA and NA. He may have to do time and will take anger management as well.
The poem:
Sore face
Sore mouth
Sore eyes
Sore cheeks
Sore lips
Stiff
Tense
Tears sorrow wanting
Longing desire
Blood
Why does it hurt?
The thoughts
The internal fight.
Fair well my love. Farewell my love.
Did you love me? Did you care about me?--Written November 14,2009
