Men can be raped too.


Screaming, Grabbing, Crying, Running

Tripping, Falling, Screaming, Screaming, Screaming.

Kicking, Cursing, Pleading

Invading, Violating, Innocence-taking.

Innocence is taken

Health is taken

Security is taken.

Who am I?

Where am I?

Is this real?

Who is she?

Why is she on me?

Men can't be raped.

It's impossible.

You're lying.

You enjoy it.

All men do.

Lies.

Disgusting, filthy lies.

It never really stops

The pain

The fear

The burning, painful sensation

Of knowing you'll never be the same.

This is not a man's world

This is not a woman's world

This is not a world at all

Unless

Hell

Is

A

World.
