Abused


She’s fifteen years old Dating an eighteen year old Everything is going well Until that day on the carpet Where everything changed He wanted to wrestle and she said sure Little did she know That she would soon be pinned Unable to release herself Pinned to the floor He began exposing her little by little Until half her body was bare The other half quivering in fear He laughed and laughed Feeling her rigid body under his Shaking and convulsing with terror Tears streamed down her cheeks Afraid that the worst was coming She kicked and screamed But he was so overpowering His mouth and hands explored her He could tell she was a virgin His eyes beaming with delight He did not get to penetrate her As a noise from the garage startled him His dad was home He quickly made her throw on her clothes Told her to stop crying and smile He was supposed to drive her home But instead she walked She needed time to process what just happened She’d just been molested by her boyfriend And she knew no one would believe her She’ll spend years torturing herself Not being able to talk about it Fearing rejection and judgment Unsure of what will happen next But knowing she could never go back To that house and be hurt again
