Patterns, Cycles... When the thoughts come Cold and hard, I cannot hold them in. They burst upon me-- A little girl again. From an early age I knew betrayal-- Definitive understatement that it is. Patterns form my existence And I hear his heavy breathing even now, So close... I hate this repetition, This lying awake Never knowing when he will come again. This circle will never end. The Father, the Son, and now the Holy Ghost. I hate you all, I hate that I cannot turn away, That I cannot protect myself from this Subtle, yet appalling, cycle. I hate them And I love them... Which is the deeper sin? Dena L Moore May 12, 2002 Patterns, Cycles...appears in my new chapbook, Waking In The Dark: Poetry of Dark Fantasy, the Occult, and Somber Reflections.
