True Love Waits

A ghost of a poem violated in the middle of the bed

My tears cry our but never reach his head

Humiliated, I am a song of desire, too passionate to deny his name

Crushed under the steel thighs of a self seeker, a pretender, who is never satisfied by his fame

Drained of beauty I am a body walked all over, terrified to be uncovered

I feel a piece of my heart break when I look into your eyes and realize it was all fake

Wishing I could find someone who will understand, I'll sit here and greulingly wait for the pain to end

When I was 15 I was raped by an old boyfriend of mine. To release my anger and my pain, I wrote a poem about it and left my feelings and hatred towards him in that poem.
