SCARS Part 1




Last night, we had been too tired and too excited with our wedding, we had gone straight to bed once it was bedtime; my arms around her possessively.

Several times during the long night I had felt her eyes on me; they would flutter shut when I opened mine. At least that’s what I thought. I would watch her for a while, her breathing soft and slow like the gentle stirring of the sea; the wind of her breath caressing my face. Once or twice; okay, fine, more times than I can count, I had leaned in to kiss her small lips that seemed to pout as she slept.

    Excuse you! She’s my wife now.

“Good morning, Bill” I heard her voice, my eyes fluttered open in response. I had been awake already. I just hadn’t known what to do; I had decided to wait till she woke me up.

“Good morning, Sweetness.” I said, Well, our eyes were fixed on each other’s.

This was going to be my first time. I had a busy teenage and youth life, though spiced with a few girlfriends; it never really got to sex. I never did let it. I always wanted the first time to be with my special. And here she was. Nene.

I don’t know how but our lips were on each other, me straddling her, her hands around my neck .My clothes were in a heap somewhere on the bed, but she was still in hers and I wondered why.

 Nene. She’s really beautiful with the right color of brown, small, bright eyes and a matching nose with a small set of lips that she pouts when she won’t say anything. My weak spot. She’s very quiet. Too quiet sometime, I think. She has a lot of past: her step-dad, step-brothers and her ex. She thinks she has a magnet of ill that seem to tell people she’s a play thing.

“Are you ready for this?” I whispered to her. I’ve never seen her without clothes. I expect to see a map of scars and cuts. In fact I anticipate it. I took off her shirt. My shirt actually. She slept in my big white polo shirt.

    My heartbeat stoped.

Her body’s perfect. There’s neither a single cut nor scar. My eyes met hers. She turned away, looking at her fingers and playing with them. I was brimming with need and my body aching for hers, but I could almost touch her hesitation.

I got off her. The first trickles of tears ran down her left cheek, then her right. I lay beside her, taking her hands in mine. Our eyes met again; hers shining with held back tears; mine with need.

“You’re perfect, Sweetness. You shouldn’t cry. Any woman would kill to have your kind of body for her man” She broke the eye contact.

I ran my fingers over her clothless body, “See? No blemish, no scars. You’re perfect, Sweetness” She retrieved her hands from mine, turning to face the other side, her back to me. I couldnt help but check her out again.

And oh boy is she really beautiful. Her voice broke into my thoughts.

“They were careful placing the scars. They placed them where no one else could find or see them.” She turned back to look at me. Our eyes met again, then she lowered hers “They placed the scars on my mind”

    I died when I heard those words.

I took her in my arms. There wouldn’t be a wedding night yet.

She said she wanted just to say "hi" and after we talked for hours and more it became a problem to say "bye" He said he just wanted to see my smiles, but we would then hold hands and walk miles. She wanted just to talk and talk we did until it wasn't enough she wanted more. She said she does not like hugs so we shook hands but as time passed it was not enough any more. we just had to get more so we hugged for seconds and it grew from minutes into some thing that looked like a cuddle, but the affection was still not enough, so every once in a while we would give each other pecks on the chick and it was nice and all but we wanted more, so we kissed once and again and again.   It was cloudy and windy one lovely evening. Even a blind man could tell that the rain was coming, the power was out and she and I as though we were opposites of a magnet came closer and closer, she wanted to cuddle, so we cuddled and cuddled until our clothes left our bodies ...

My night time poem

Silence sweeps the sky And birds hide in the dark The stars like diamond dazzle And shooting lights they sparkle The wind it sweeps the sun and moonlight fills the heaven The stars shine all night long Just as the clock strikes seven The trees dance to the wind And grasses bow in awe The crickets chirp in the field As fireflies astound all Now your eyes are heavy Just as your eyelids quiver Shhhhh listen dearie, To a night time poem that's mine

Picture Book

I'm flipping pages. Flipping and fliping and flipping. Then one stops me. It's recognition that hits me actually. What's her picture doing in his diary? I remember that dress, then that night... Recognition pokes me in the chest again. Her legs are spread wide. And her lips have that bright smile. 'Slit' I mutter under my breath, my heart burning underneath my skin. I scan the writings on the page I found the the picture. I scan and scan, and read past a lot of words until I get it. No! It gets me actually. This was what he wanted me to see? To read to him? To swear to keep? Guilt stabs at me. Guilt at thinking he would ever cheat on me. Even if he did, I well do deserve it, but he didn't even On death bed, he still wanted to help.  He has always wanted to help, all his life, all his sad little life. "What took you so long,  Beetle" He's asking as I sit with the diary in hand. He has that youthly smile. The one that got me that firs...

Letter to my father

Image
Hi its me again, remember me? the sperm that shot up your darling wife’s uterus. The wife you promised eternity. Hi its me again, and I damn well know I have introduced myself but let me eat my cake and have it, or I can’t have this too? like the happiness you promised us that ran further away the moment you told us of his visit. For the third time hi father, remember me ? I have replayed this scene in my head over and over and over again, the look in your face and the speed my heart would run. I have just one question, I know you would be expecting more, But I have just one. Do you regret having me? having us? getting married? And yes I know I said just one but goddamn it, with how many strings you have pulled, how could you expect just one. And yes I see your hands clinched by your side, but I dare you.. I God damn dare you to lift one finger on me. this is not the child you once pat to bed or the little kid that whimpered when you picked up your belt to teach a lesson Hi...

MISSING SCHOOL GIRL

Image
I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? the wind, oh the wind I look up in despair. This unending nightmare is more than I can bear. But all I do is stare, but my heart makes a wish. I look but I see not I listen for that holy call the part where I yell freedom at last and goodbye to my hurting past. Could my day have grown past? Could my night have long last? If it be the light of dawn that I may perceive again. With fading hopes and visions my dreams they fizzle out. With only little provision this might just be my last. I cry in the face of destiny I stare in the face of hope. Now left in teary lingers how much more can I cope. A virgin yet a mother a maiden yet a widow. My voice; it screams for help My heart; it burns in tears. Oh! how they cut my skin My flesh is now for dogs. Oh! how they eat me daily just like a bowl of pods. I cry, I cry but who does hear these tears? The wind; they mock me daily the bird; they sing my doom. The days; th...
