It's amazing how the sins of the parents get passed down to the children and it never fails. At least the abuse we suffered never went any further. What a wonderfully written and honest piece. Best of luck with your project!

Have a great day, and God bless.

I leaned back in my chair tears rolling down - the adult you bringing out the 5 year old who stood and let that bike hit her, what dreadful memories you have lived with Lea. I hope writing about it eventually becomes therapeutic for you.
Cheers
Valda

Good morning, Lea,
Your writing - the presentation of it - is becoming no less difficult to comprehend, but controlled and measured. I sense this control not only in your use of the tools of writing, but also as you are coming to grips with telling your story. That's a wonderful accomplishment.
Keep writing.
Stay strong!

Thank you for sharing!

Yes, it's particularly harrowing, seeing I have two daughters and a granddaughter whom I adore, I have always been protective, all kids need love, nurture and protection, they are special, there innocence needs protecting, they are not owned, they are gifts and blessings, well done, Roy

Wonderfulmetaphor: "I find myself riding that old sway back horse of fear once again." & simile:
"Memories gather at the surface of my mind like little knives stabbing here and there waiting for my pen to lift" I remember I was bleeding & my mother told me it must gave been I hurt myself on my bike. I think my mother was molested as a child on their farm, a haven for perps. She was in great denial as my mother.

This is an horrific story Lea and it sounds like you have suffered physical abuse since a very young age, you are a brave an courageous woman and telling us your story will help you move on, we are listening.

Just one edit:

could draw (upon) to survive what was coming.

Love Dolly x

The title didn't give it away but as I read your introduction to this bio on complications I became aware why you had to peel the onion as you so deftly put it and tell us your story about the abuse you suffered as a child. I understand and can relate to childhood trauma and how it changed you forever.
This is a complicated piece and I might suggest that you put each trauma in a different bio as you continue to peel the onion of your soul.
Jesse

    Thank you Jesse you're very kind and your words mean a lot. I have added to that chapter and edited it somewhat as it seemed a little bit prematurely. But that's OK I'm glad to have feedback and I'm glad to hear I will in turn. Look at my 1st home the poem that I wrote and take your suggestions to heart. Thank you so much and have a wonderful day!
