Description
'Dedicated to anyone who has been abused in there life'The Asylum Patient-disassociation
Within these walls
Built of flesh
I’m safe
And secure
I hold the key
To my sanctuary
You can’t touch or hurt me here
I wrote this a few months back, not really sure why.
Ah now I remember, I sorta went through a bit of this when I was a kid, but I know far too many other people that have suffered even worse than this, not good.
Sadly, I think this is about a person who’s been abused as a child and there only way to stay sane and coping is to switch off and retreat into themselves, partition there mind.
Unfortunately people abusing kids, whether sexually or other, is an all to common thing in society today and even when these scum do get caught they’re given the most pathetic sentences, then get out on good behaviour because they’re not violent offenders, WELL FUCK THAT, if I had my way they would all hang and I think even that’s lenient.
This took round hmmmmm 15-20 hours i guess, full view is quite detailed.

I actually stepped back from the computer a bit after reading the description because for the past few months thoughts have been haunting me.
It's the second time today that I've done this after seeing a piece of artwork here on deviantArt.
And never, in my months of being here, have I done that [other than today.]
But what I'm trying to get at is it's summoned in me a powerful reaction/emotion.
Thanks for uploading!
:]

A touching piece with the meaning that I too understand more than I would like too. I so agree with you and the punishment of offenders.

I apologize because I know that this comment isn't directed towards me, but I just wanted to say that's not necessarily true.
I'm not a violant person at all.
In fact, confrontation makes me very anxious and uncomfortable.
I try to stay clear of it at all cost.
But I understand where you're coming from because I do tend to lose my temper at inappropriate times, though I doubt that's because of... yeah.

Although I love kids, I think I have the same fear [of causing them harm.]
But I suppose I shouldn't worry because I'm still young and I don't plan on having children any time soon.

Absolutely amazing work. And what you wrote about it for background info adds even more meaning to something already pretty powerful on its own. I love the poem you did to.
Take care friend.
