What you did

Bind my hands, shut my eyes.
Tape my mouth and hush my cries.
Discard my coat and tear my clothes.
My bare skin you do expose.

Laugh at my helpless calls for help,
With your filthy hands, my body felt.
Whisper things into my ears
Evily smile when I tremble in fear.

To this day I smell your putrid breath,
And at times still, wish for death.
Shiver at the slightest touch,
On that day you took so much.

All you took was my virginity??
No! you took away much more from me.
My innocence,
My trust
My voice
My confidence
took over my every
Thought
Word
and Action

All this you took in that one hour
But in fear, I no longer cower.
I will stand and I will fight,
You cannot hurt me tonight.

You used to haunt my every thought.
In my mind no longer shall you trot.
You may have taken lots away.
But now I can truly say.

I have found once again
My trust
My voice
and confidence
