Don’t you want me?
I said no.
It’s ok honey, sshhh, please? Hands close over my wrist, weight presses against my hips.
I said no.
Trying to extricate my body from underneath this weight, I start seeing white, my ears ringing, my eyes staring straight.
I said no.
What is happening to me? I don’t understand-yet. Strange noises envelop my ears, as I fight to stop this threat.
I said no.
My mind spinning when reality sets in, with hands, with legs, with pain. The present of my life begins to stop. It becomes the stranger now, unknown terrain.
I said no.
But it didn’t matter, he took what he wanted with no regard, my heart was now a shatter.
A splatter, no matter.
I said no.
