i want to be pure


hot summer sunrays

a flower growing between cracked cement

 

behind an abandoned house

after the animal activist event

 

he ravaged my body

and took my innocence

 

only sixteen, 

when I still had an identity left

 

he taught me a lesson,

that many others put in cement

 

you mean nothing

and neither does your consent
