Poems by Natasha Jordan

Please Don't Hurt Me
- Published: February 2009
Poem Of Childhood Abuse And Its Aftermath

in Abuse Poems

Scared and alone a sad little girl cries herself to sleep,
No hand to hold, no one to tell, so alone at night she'd weep.

Tears falling down her nine year old face,

Scared and alone a sad little girl cries herself to sleep,
No hand to hold, no one to tell, so alone at night she'd weep.

Tears falling down her nine year old face,
she felt so unloved, she felt out of place,
She told all her secrets to her pillowcase.

See there was a man much older than she,
He was supposed to be in love and married to her mommy.

But her mom would leave and while she was out of the house,
He would sneak around quiet as a mouse.

He would find that lonely little girl,
And ruin her entire world.

And when he was through he'd look her in the eye,
And say, "If you say a word, your brothers and mom will die."

So she kept that secret through all of the years.
She spent her time crying all of the tears.

That man got away with all that he did,
Trying to make a woman out of a little kid.

She never told her mom, but one day,
Her mom read it in a journal she had hidden away.

She talked to her mom and they tried to make him pay
For all of the years he had taken away.

So that little girl answered questions day after day,
Of all the things he would do and say.

One thing after another, time after time,
She had to relive all of this in her mind.

But there wasn't enough hard evidence to make the case last,
After all of the years that had come and passed.

So the man had to register as a sex offender for a couple of years,
For making that little girl cry all of those tears.

She paid more than he did and still does to this day,
For now she has a daughter she can hardly let play.

Because what that man did scarred her like a knife,
She feels like less of a woman and feels like he stole her life.

Every once in awhile she swears she sees his face,
At a store, a station, just any place.

And it is enough to send a chill to the bone,
Will he hurt me again, will he follow me home?

After you went through misery like that,
You can never have your normal life back.

You think about it sometimes, you know he's still there,
You wonder if he will come and get you, you have to live with that fear.

Once you have been violated in such a way,
You can't help but think he'll still get you one day.

No matter how safe you are, or what anyone has said,
He could be gone from this earth, but he's forever in your head.

Thank you for sharing your story. I was sexually, physically, and emotionally abused by my step-father from the time I was 7 until I was 20. I know the pain you feel or the anger you might...

The Broken Girl
- Published: February 2009
Poem Of Loneliness And Desolation In A Broken Home

in Abuse Poems

Welcome to my broken home,
There's nobody here, I'm all alone.

The walls they scream of things once said,

Welcome to my broken home,
There's nobody here, I'm all alone.

The walls they scream of things once said,
They constantly echo in my head.

The door in front it never closes as people never stay,
The hatred and guilt always drives them away.

So welcome to my broken home; I don't have anything to offer you,
No love, no face; I'm out of place and there's not much I can do.

I sit in here and do nothing at all,
But stare at these empty walls.

It portrays the life of hurt and hate,
My destiny, my anguish, my solitaire fate.

It's like a projection screen playing a never-ending show,
It's like it's in slow motion, so painfully slow.

So run now from my broken home, keep the door open as you leave,
Because being trapped in here I still need air to breathe.

Tell now about my broken home of all things heard and said,
Because even as a woman that house still lives in my head.

That little girl trapped inside, well that little girl is me,
Even though I'm older now the horrible thoughts won't let me be.

Death Of Sister-In-Law Poem

in Mother Death Poems

You look back on memories you forgot you had,
And at times you'll smile even though it hurts so bad.

Your mother is a special woman, and no one can take her place.

You look back on memories you forgot you had,
And at times you'll smile even though it hurts so bad.

Your mother is a special woman, and no one can take her place.
You'll find a peace of mind when you remember her smiling face.

Your mother is an angel now; she flies high above the rest,
And in your hearts always and forever she will be the best.

She has earned her wings, and it's time for her to fly.
I know it hurts; no one is ever ready to say goodbye.

She knows you do not understand and that you cry at night,
But as you finally drift off to sleep, let her memory hold you tight.

She will be your guardian angel through the rest of your life,
Helping lead you on the path between what's wrong and right.

Your mother loves you so very much, and her love will always remain true.
Please don't ever think for a second that your mother will forget you.

A mother's love is like no other in the whole world,
And she has the most wonderful memories of a little boy and girl.

She has taken them with her as she's flown away,
Up to Heaven free of pain, which is her new home to stay.

So although you cannot see her and you wish she could be there,
Your mother can always hear you, and your mother will always care.

A mother does not forget the two greatest loves of her life,
And she loved nothing more than being your mommy and your daddy's wife.

She is so proud of her family, and that's in her heart to stay,
Even though she's an angel and has had to fly away.

So as you cry your tears, remember your mother's love
Being sent to you from her, from the beautiful Heaven above.

She will be there through your good times; she will be there through your bad.
She'll be there when you are happy, she'll be there when you're sad.

Your mother has become and angel now; it is her time to fly,
And you will never know how badly it hurt me to watch you have to say goodbye.

I am in tears right now, that was so beautiful and so heartbreaking at the same time.
I could never say how sorry I am for your loss, I am a mother of two and I have no idea what I would ever do if something like that happened to me, I don't even want to imagine it or what you have been going through.
Please know your son is watching down on you and is so very thankful for all the love and care you gave to him, he will always be with you, and I am also sure he would love this poem with his whole heart!!! I know I do. Again my thoughts and prayers are with you as you have had to go through what no parent should ever have to!

This is a great poem and it is very true. I am the daughter of an alcoholic. I know it is a sickness and I know no one would ever want to live like that. I have watched her drink since I can remember and it hurts. I hope you stayed on your road to recovery and if it became to hard then don't give up you'll make it. have faith in yourself, believing in you is the first step. and again this poem is beautiful!

I had to watch my mother "self mutilate" herself since I was young. I knew it was not right I think the first time I saw her do it I was 8. last time I saw her do it I was around 16/17. I remember when she would get drunk I would find anything sharp I could find in the house and hide it all in my room because I didn't want her to hurt herself! I am now a 27 year old mother of two. I still to this day can not figure my mother out, but to my knowledge she has not done it in a long time. It is a hard thing to see especially as a young child because now we both have permanent scars. And in a way I guess it has made me the person I am today. I am very strong and I forgive and forget like it is second nature. Because as my mom was drunk and dealing with her pain and problems it created A LOT of issues for me to deal with myself. I am SO glad I found this web-site I have SO many poems I have wrote and I am glad I found a place to share them with other poetry lovers as well.
