By Accident Was it?


You touched, me on one lonely night. My business was, my own not yours to strike. You stole my sacredness my heart and my worth. I thought somebody could hear my cry but my mind watched my soul through it in the dirt. I was scared, cold, disgusted with my own self. I began to question the value of my own wealth. Was this love or was this going to be my death? My shrine was my home the only place i could hide. I thought my doors were securely locked but you found a way to pry inside. You lied to my family saying i teased you and wanted this to happen. It hurt me when they believed you caused me to be deeply saddened. But i let you go free because forgiveness was right But you can sit here and say it was an accident, but are you sure it was not out of spite?
