You took something from me,
Something I can never get back...
My innocense and childlike beauty
And later, my sanity and self respect.
You raped me of any joy I might have had,
and made it impossible to trust anyone.
You took away my childhood,
and replaced it with feelings of guilt.
and yet, I hated myself
more than I hated you.
I've tried so hard to forget,
but when I sleep
it crawls through my mind
like ants from the nest,
to collect the cumbs of self worth.
and when the last bit is gone,
I will slip into the nothingness
that has become my life.
Even though I am numb inside,
I forgive you....
You may have taken my body,
But in the end....
You will NEVER have my soul! |
Submission Name: My soul is my own
