RAPED OH SO YOUNG,

THE PAIN WON'T LEAVE.

THE BLOOD JUST WON'T CLOT,

IS THAT NORMAL OR IS SOMETHING WRONG?

ALL THE LIES I WEAVE,

I'M SURPRISED I DON'T ROT.

BETRAYAL SO DEEP,

THE STITCHES DON'T STAY CLOSED.

IT HURTS TOO MUCH TO EVEN CRY.

THROUGH THE YEARS, I CONTINUE TO WEEP.

MY HEART CONTINUES TO STAY CLOSED,

AND IT'S EASIER NOW TO LIE.

THE CUTS AND BURNS ARE THERE,

EVEN THOUGH THEY SHOULDN'T BE

YET I DON'T SEEM TO LEARN.

PLEASE, HELPME, BUT DON'T STARE

JUST SHOW ME WHAT I SHOULD SEE

AND PUSH ME FORWARD BY BEING STERN.

I'VE LEARNED TO LOVE,

BUT STILL I'M SO AFRAID.

WOULD AND COULD RAPE HAPPEN AGAIN?

ALL THAT I KNEW WAS THAT A SHOVE

FELT GOOD WHEN IT BRUISED WHILE I WAS SCARED

I WILL NOT ALLOW IT AGAIN.

I WILL NOT LOVE.

I WILL HATE,

AND LIVE ALONE AND ANGRY

I HAVE TAKEN OFF THE GLOVE

TO SHED BLOOD AND SATE,

THIS BLOODLUST THAT I WILL AND HAVE DECREED.
