Poetry: Remembering rape

I did everything wrong

I teased you
I trusted you
I used you
I asked for it

I was naked
I was arrogant
I was unconscious
I was asleep
I was drugged

I did it to myself
I drugged myself

I let you suckle me
I liked it
It was hot
It was your chance
You knew it
You didn't take it

I was tired
I was in pain
I took a pill
I took off my clothes
To mess with your head
I went to sleep

You waited
I woke up with you inside
My body responded
Like it always does
To penetration

I couldn't wake up
What is going on?
Where am I?
I'm being penetrated
I don't like it

Who is that?
Why are you inside me?
I don't want this
I want to sleep
Get off me

Why are you doing this to me?
You don't belong there
That is not yours
Leave me alone

My brain is not working!
So thick and foggy
I can't even move
Get off me
Stop

And you do
And I go back to sleep
But you stay up
You wait
And do it again

I did everything wrong
But I was virgin with you
It was my choice to make
And you took it from me

I hate you
You stole from me
And made me nothing

I did everything wrong
Does that make you right?

    'A few dangerous things'

    Pain.
    Her heart
    Shards of glass
    Slicing it open

    Cuts.
    Her feet
    Looking past the
    Obvious places

    Tears.
    Her

    A blank mind
    Erased by guilt and
    Erased by sin and
    Erased by hate

    Flash!
    A blink of a scene
    A keg in the corner and
    A table outside

    The

    Taken Away:



    How did this happen
    why did it happen to me
    I should have seen it coming
    I was young and naive.
    He lured me to his
