No!
No!
I shout,
to your tempest desires
your unwanted touch
sets my skin aflame
No! No! No!
you hurt me deep
deeper than the ocean is dark
the sea welcomes me
to the depth
I sink
hit rock bottom
even though
god may light my way
you darken my vision
cover my eyes,
my mouth
so that I may never see,
never speak again.
you cannot have me,
you cannot hold me down
I will rise to the light.
