[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 664363, member: 17461"] HA!!! :O) Cedar Thank you, Copa. I see this imagery so often in my life. See those eyes, feel that sick helpless awfulness. It is one of those things that, in the telling of it, sounds so stupid. It is one of those memories that, as Elie Wiesel writes about his own experiences, "...to speak of them in words profanes their sacred horror." It's like that. It's like that, and it's like pouring that horror feeling into my relationship with D H. Like pouring filth over him and onto me, and I don't want him to know that happened to me. Truly, I wish he had never come to know any of this, about me. It is a sadness, a dirty thing. Maybe, that will clear for me too, that feeling of dirtiness that these things happened, to me. The way a victim of rape feels, too. Dirtied, cheapened. We will work on that, here. This hidden shame, this global, nameless, unrecognized shame in us. Cedar :sorrowsmiley2: :9-07tears: [/QUOTE]
