When I was younger i
When I was younger i was raped
I always wondered why it happened to me
I remembering hearing people laughing
I saw so many people watching
I felt so much pain
I wanted it to stop
I hoped that I’d get through it
I prayed to god when it was happening
I worried that people would find out
I tried to get away
I wished for someone to help me
I said no
I believed it was my fault
I don’t understand why they chose me
I dreamed about it so many times
I never wanted this life
I see their faces everyday
They say im family
They feel guilty
They want to say sorry
They hope that i get over it
They pray for forgiveness
They worry that i will snitch
They try to make it up to me
They wish for a second chance
They believe im one of them
They don’t understand how painful it was
They dream that it never happened
They never talk about it
They see the pain in my eyes
We say it’s time to let go
We feel blame disappear
We want to let go of the pain
We hope for help along the way
We pray that it won’t happen again
We don’t worry so much anymore
We try to support each other
We know it was a mistake
We understand what happens now
We dream of success
We never judge each other anymore
We see the good in each other
