I was Innocent, Medusa

He said, “ I am Beautiful.”

   Exquisite 

He said, “ I am Pure.”

   Divine 

He said, “ Come here.”

   Excellent 

He said, “ You’ll like it . I promise.”

   Tasty

I said, “ LET ME GO!!!”

I said, “ NO!!!”

I said, “ Please...”

1 Party, 1 Drink, 1 Man

   SAVAGED

You SLUT! You WHORE! You CUNT! 

They said, “ She deserved it.” 

They said, “ She wanted it.”

They said, “ She did it to herself.”

1 Night, 1 Room, 1 Girl

   DEFILED

I said, “ Don’t listen to them.”

I said, “ Don’t be ashamed.”

I said, “ It’s not your fault...”

1 Body, 1 Heart, 1 Identity

   NUMB

She was Exquisite

   She is now tainted

She was Divine 

   She is now corrupted 

She was Excellent

   She is now vengeful 

She ... was ... Innocent 

I WAS INNOCENT.
