not very poetic but rather more instructive
Violation
Not everyone can have relationshipswithout getting hurt and violated beyond recognition.
There are some who simply are too sensitive
to be able to endure the friction of a close relationship,
and some will easily get damaged and destroyed for life
by disappointment and betrayal, violation and impalement,
and although you can survive it,
you will never be the same again
but will have company forever by a second personality,
a shadow of repressed volcanic bitterness
of almost metaphysical dimensions,
which you will need for protection and refuge
from the monstrosity and shortcomings of man;
which you at best can handle
and develop into an ideal
to serve you rather than to be impeded by,
which might become your demon
that could even help you on the way
to bring yourself at peace with the atrocity of man;
and thus your worst experience and trauma
could be turned into and used for your salvation.
