Family Unties.........
My story is long ,Time is precious............... If you are telling lies to your child ,dont ......the truth is always out there.Children soon grow to be adults and then choose how to take the truth themselves.You may be creating a rod for your own back with untruths and will regret it later on in life.
I know this as my brother and sister were lied to about me .I had no contact with them for 13 years since my parents divorced.They went to live with my father and his wife.She turned out to be very jealous and possesive of my father and my brother and sister.One Christmas (our first one apart ) My other 2 sisters(they lived with Grandma) and i were at my Grandmothers house .My mother had sent The younger kids some presents.They were not allowed to have them .We watched as they were thrown in the bin.We were not allowed to hug or kiss our brother or sister.And on that day my heart was torn.I had to sit there and be told by this woman ,Do not pick them up you can look ,talk only when we are in the room.They were 3 and 4 years old.I had to sit there stony faced when my sister came to sit on my knee ..my father would have belted me if i had of attempted to pick her up.I had to watch her face ,we had been so close ....she didnt know what was going on...she ran and hid behind the chair crying....as i am doing now remembering how it felt..

Meeting her ....

13 years has gone by ,not knowing anything about them.We rang ...but it did no good ....The stepmother would never let us speak to them.If we wanted to speak with our father ,she would be on the other line listening in.When we rang..all calls were screened..meaning everything went through an answering machine,unless she answered.
Youngest sister left home ,found me through electoral roll.Was the most exciting thing in my life that i have felt ..apart from my children being born.I could hug this sister as much as i wanted .Speak to her without anyone looking over my shoulder.The stepmother terrifies her.Still they dont know she has found us.I still have a brother there.I have tried contacting him through e-mail....to no avail.
I know for a fact what she has told them ...Things that are so terrible about my sisters and me .Very hurtful untruths.I think maybe he may not want to contact us for that reason.Even though my sister did,i just have a feeling ,she may have got through to him with her cruel lies.

May we all learn that life is too short...............

Here is something i wrote ..to explain how i feel ......
  • Poison lies, innocent cries,
    They had to turn ,they had to hate.
    What did i do that was so bad?
    Evil snipes ,spiteful gripes.
    Daddy made me cry,
    Don't know why.
    Got an aching heart ,
    Had it right from the start.
    Backs were turned ,everything unfinished.
    dark days , frowning gaze.............

    Getting up standing tall,
    I'm going to let you know I won't fall.
    Strong as steel,Head of Iron,
    You've made me my own lion.




    I can't write poems that well....but i tell you ,it sure feels good to get this out of my system . :-)
