"The truth shall set you free."
A poem about Trichotillomania
(Viewer Discretion advised, it is a story a person not you.)
November 5, 2008
"Remember Remember the 5th of November," V for Vendetta said. It is the day that Barack Obama won. With Cheers in hand to remember this date I celebrate with new friends.
This is for the faint of heart
For those I tell do not part
For I used to pull my hair you see
Please understand me
I had gotten sick on the job came yesteryear and hospitalization brought me to tears.
A very good explanation is in need so I cried " Ice cream for World Peace."
I pulled my hair since I was four telling no one about what I did before
It'd grow to the size of a quarter or so and I'd show up to school in a ponytail
With tears and tears of years distraught
I thought about what I have brought
I met an old man by the name of John of God and he sent me to the emergency room for I don't know what.
The doctors prescribed me pills to stop my aching pain to where I drop.
From Vaporic to Ambilify to Zyprexa and more
I finally stopped pulling you see
To lessen the complications more
I told my story to my family you see
and there that's when
they abandoned me.
Spent years of reflecting and asking relatives about me
I found out I was molested you see.
I'd known this all before but kept it suppressed for I wasn't taught how to grow from my very best.
With sessions with counselors you see, I began to analyze me.
It may not be for you
If you suffer too
But for I, I understand why I pull my hair sometimes.
Stress.
With a suppressed memory like that, things had to go whack.
But my very best way to say
Hey these things go away
So if you are a researcher too
You might learn a thing or two
For I can not explain the reasons why
On the 5th day of November
The day I cry
With a new president in hand
I understand the reasons of this land
I had to be
Ice cream for world peace.
