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?
