Rape
Right away I could see the change
I wasn't the same and never would be
You stole from me something that can never be returned.
All the pain and suffering expressed
in my endless supply of tears.
I can't close my eyes without seeing you
without experiencing it all over again.
A human is not invincible
I can be hurt, damaged, ripped apart.
I thought nothing bad could ever happen.
Realizing I was wrong in this way is indescribable.
I wish I could go back in time
make different decisions
go down a different path.
People look at me and see no change
my surface looks the same.
I hide my pain until I am alone
where no one can see me weak and broken.
They tell me this pain is normal and natural
but all I feel is strange
I am not me anymore I am someone else.
Everyone tells me it gets better
but I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I hate to wake up
leaving the world of dreams
and facing the painful reality
the memories flooding me
drowning me
can anyone save me from my tragedy?
