Back to 9-11
I started writing to cope with the pain when I was 12. I know no other way to cope but to write. And so…it’s time I write this. “He left me!” I shrieked. “New York was burning and he raped me…as the towers fell! People were dying. Children lay dying, and he raped me! […]
In after thought….
I wrote this as the afterword for Broken then decided not to include it based on the advise of a good friend. I can not delete a single word I write. I ever. And so…I’m posting it here. First, I wish to say that the individuals portrayed by Shaun, Elizabeth’s Father, and Scott no […]
Runaway Train

Physical Loneliness
“She’s screaming.” My words are but a whisper, but my therapist looks up from her notes. I wasn’t surprised that she heard me. “What is she saying?” “No words. Just screams.” “And why do you think that is? What do you think she’s screaming about?” What indeed…Damned if I knew. Angel just always screams. I […]
Starting Over
We are governed by the psychology conditions we have. If we are to understand our actions and take control of them, then we must first examine our past and confront the hurt we shoulder. WARNING: This article contains graphic sexual material including rape and abuse. Allow me to cover my sexual past with you […]
Breaking it Down
Bit by bit, my therapist and I have been pulling apart my personality. Like a ball filled with hundreds of slip knots, gently—and some days not so gently—we tug at the strings and watch the ball fall apart, one knot at a time. The results are always the same. There is a moment of comprehension […]
