Poetry: Rape

It feels different
After
A new experience is undertook
And these are the days that I wish
There were less pages in my book

It feels like an anchor in the pit of my soul
Guilt and shame that eat away at me
Endlessly circling thoughts that make me question my sanity
Profanity
In the words that interrupt my daily routine

Whats the scheme
I want a rhyme and reason
A purpose for
Tragic situations.

I want a 10 page report
On how to erase the after effects.

Id like a lesson
On how to continue on with life.

Because today, it doesn't feel right to just keep going
Because this morning, my hands couldn't stop shaking
Because last night, I still felt the violations

And because tomorrow
Even though you've left
There exists a great part of you
That is haunting my mind.


Food doesn't taste the same
Sleeping leaves me tired
Dreams keep me awake
Anxiety leaves me unable to form a structured sentence

Breathless
That is how u left me.

I need a tank full of freedom
To rid myself of you

    The vile violence I fought

    Until no fight left

    Was subdued by the lewd onslaught

    I scream but the ears are deaf




    If I reason with

    SHATTERED SOUL

    One person controlled my fate,
    Still he haunts my memory,
    Savagely he came into my life
    And took my soul away,
    He

    Violation

    How many creepy hands touched me

    How do I deal

    Not knowing what was done to me

    A lesson learned

    You can't trust anyone

    Chemicals
