Re:

She was certainly not right in her mind to feel the need to do that to another. I don't know, maybe she just wanted to see if she could. Perhaps creating that fantasy world distracted her from awful things in her own life. Whatever it was, I've forgiven her for it by now. It is useless to hold a grudge.

eeks it sounds to me as though she was really evil. No wonder the depression was real for you were abused.

Re:

Oh, I see now! LOL! I love people who see things in a different way! BCA, always welcome! Haha!

 

Oh yes, Kabu. I was in a very dark and dangerous place. Gosh, I still remember how I felt... and I can't at the same time. It's like, I was in such a different place to where I am now, that it feels like another world. But I have phantom memories of the pain, the anguish, the loss I felt at that time.

 

And the worst part was that I believe that it was all a lie. It was all caused by a person who I don't think even existed. It was one person pretending to be many others. A talented deceiver, and I fell into the trap of her lies. The fantasy she spun about herself caught me in its web.

 

I loved and lost many people during this time. During the time when she introduced me to new "friends", even a love interest, before cruelly ripping them away one by one. I was so young and naive at the time that I believed every story she spun me. I'm the kind of person who used to believe that not much was too far fetched. If I'd stepped back, put all the pieces together and looked at it rationally, I think I would have seen what I see now. A lie of brilliant magnitude.

 

But I didn't. By this point, I was too enmeshed into the web of deception that I could no longer pinpoint reality from falsehood. She was good, and the anguish was unnecessary.

 

It still makes me sad.

BCA always sees life from a "different" angle love...Wiley and I wait each day for his comments. LOl

For me....I have read and re read this poem. So intense, so filled with real depression and misery. It comes across to me as someone in a most dangerous mind set...places I have once upon a time been so that I clung to each word. The rhythm and the repetition is very powerful. Congratulations.
