- Fading_(book) abstract "Fading (2001, ISBN 0-9712833-0-3), is the therapeutic poetry book written by singer/pianist Raven Oak. Filled with seven years of poetry written during her college years, this book explores the depth and pain in surviving both rape and abuse. The book is divided into four chapters or sections, with each section of poetry becoming darker in subject manner than the last. The back cover of the book demonstrates the "darkness" of this poetry book through the sketch of a ghost hanging by a noose--an image that pays tribute to the death of Tempest Smith.The book is also dedicated to Tempest Smith, a 12 year-old girl from Lincoln Park, Michigan who committed suicide by hanging after being brutally bullied by students at her school. Being a survivor of an attempted rape, author Raven Oak is a member of RAINN and the book donates to RAINN, the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network.While a juvenile work compared to later writings, some poems stand out such as Eyes on Faces.Eyes on FacesI wondered if I was okay when I asked if you were.I pondered my sanity for asking such a question.Why would you answer me in my humbled state?Why would you turn over your years of hateonly because I asked it of you?Just when I thought I was out of the storm,I discovered I was in the eye, when all I neededwas one word, one simple expression.But I got silence.And then I got regret.I screamed at a wall to see if it would answersince nothing else hears me and knows I exist.I called out to a stranger to not cross the streetbut to swim it when the rain started.Why would you mind that sometimes I’m bitter though I know better?Why would you care that I feel a lack of support by my own hand,only because I didn’t ask it of you? I couldn’t.Just when I thought I had not harbored resentment,I found I was a planet of bitterness and guilt.All that would stop the war in me was one simple care,one moment of time,but I got ignored.And then I got angry.How can I let myself give in to my anger,when the disease eats in before out?How can I give in to such resentment,when the prospect of friends is impossible...apparently?Though occasionally, I find the eye again in the peaceful moment of time.But why would you take the steps I took to say“Yeah, i got it,” or “I understand. Thanks for telling me.”Why would you open yourself to the unknown?That would make you so abnormal.And just when I thought you’d understand what I needed to say,I felt that I knew what you felt, before all I saidwas full of angerand bitterness.So I got nothing.And I deserve nothing.".
