My Innocence
You took my innocence when you pushed me against the wall
You made me feel insignificant, tiny and small
I tried to fight, but you were too strong
Inside my mind screamed in terror,” this is so wrong”
My mouth was quiet and I couldn’t make a sound.
When you finished your dastardly deed
I said “ I will tell my parents and you will pay”
You laughed at me and said, “Go ahead
They won’t believe you anyway”
I followed through and told my mom
Thought she would believe me
But I was so very wrong
She told me if your flag your ass
In front of a man
He will take you if he can
So I went through three years of hell
Cutting deep into my thighs
To release the pain
To keep from going insane
Because you convinced me I was to blame.
It’s been years now since this began
I am a strong woman, I know who I am
I still carry the scars from this angry man
I have evolved as much as anyone can
I still carry the scars
White traces on my thighs
A soul that sometimes cries
Because I was a little girl
Who didn’t die
