    Trial & Error

    ****trigger warning: explicit mention of sexual violence****

    In response to events surrounding a recent high profile trial.

    You give your seal of approval
    He’s such a good guy
    He was a good friend to me

    You bring up the wife and child
    He keeps them safe
    from all the dangerous men

    You’re the face of a cause
    but you mustn’t believe it at…read more

    • I have been obsessively reading about Danny Masterson, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis all week. I am incredibly disturbed and upset by all of it. For me, when someone stands up or stands by a known rapist, it makes me feel like we (any and all victims) don’t matter. But I do feel justice and progress in the fact that they prosecuted him and a…read more

    He told me his favorite features of mine are the people pleasing characteristics-
    to which I replied, “do you really not understand how awful that is?”
    And maybe it’s not all bad
    But when you give because you know
    it will all be taken from you anyways
    is it really giving?
    How am I supposed to feel hearing
    the defense mechanism I’ve been fightin…read more

    Excerpt from “Letters”

    You say, “I’ll see you in an hour”
    Oh, so soon I fall devoured?
    All is fair,
    and I knew,
    love had lost its power

    “Oh, promise me you will never tell another”
    “I promise this will never happen again”
    “Now take me like your scarlet letter
    and keep me at the seam of your hem”

    It was your bones
    against mine
    not skin to skin
    It was your bones
    agains…read more

    It is for sure a “by all means necessary” situation and I am better for it. I think others may commiserate that when looking back on the situations that land you there and the experiences you have there- the loss of autonomy & fishbowl feeling, it’s all a trauma. I’m undecided on whether there’s truly a place for such a thing or if there needs to…read more

    a dream about a hospital

    ~getting help is traumatic~

    Wake up in an unfamiliar cold bed
    Warm blanket, back exposed
    Not sure how you got there-
    but you did it to yourself

    Fighting tubes- back to sleep
    You only wanted to apologize
    They will never understand
    And again- you never want to wake up

    Rushed back into full consciousness
    No compress for your bruised arms
    Honesty…read more

    • Sometimes the the things that all us to grow and heal are the most uncomfortable in the moment. But it takes so much courage to do whatever it takes to get better.

      Also, the mention of socks stuck out to me. A girl I went to high school with started GripCity Socks after being admitted twice. I think you might find her story interesting.…read more

    ~Learning how to find safety & healing in sensuality after trauma; building positive associations and being myself for the first time~

    I know you’ve just gone
    but I miss you already
    Oh, why not just stay
    until I’m all done?

    Not meant to be a lover,
    but call me your concubine
    to meet your needs
    as well as mine

    Oh, come into me

    little light

    When, oh when
    did I stop smelling your head?
    3 months in
    and my life is already flashing
    in your eyes
    Oh, my little kin-
    it will never be the same
    as it is right now,
    as it is right now

    Why ask why
    when I know you are the answer?
    You give me reason,
    so much joy
    and light
    Oh, sweet child-
    you move me with every smile,
    with every smile

    • Awww Chloe, congrats on your beautiful baby. Keep telling yourself how much you love your body and keep expressing gratitude. Over time, you won’t need to say it anymore, because you will truly feel it. Thank you for sharing. You are clearly so strong. And thank you for being part of our unsealed family. <3 Lauren
