Victim Of Rape

[Artistic-Nomad]

Victim of Rape:

 

She was a daughter, a sister, whom had a mother,

Couldn’t face the pain an old man brought her,

She tried to mumble the words to her father,

With the embarrassment, she couldn’t go any further,

Depressed, couldn’t confess to her own siblings,

Stressed, feeling less as she was weeping,

At night she stays awake –with a thought that aches,

Reflects from the pain, she has gained through many years,

Still remains silent of the shame that kept her bursting into tears,

In a letter she composed before she came out,

In sadness she wrote,

“My people will not be proud—

Having this fear, feeling misery and treated unfair?

I’m not able to love, if I’m feeling despair,

Would anybody even care?

Would they bare –their soul and shelter me from the cold,

Would they give me the fault –if I let the secret unfold?

Will they be against me and create a conspiracy?

What if they say –innocent till proven guilty?

And support the man who rapped me?

Misery in mystery awaits me, if this man is set freeâ€

 

 

“I’m trying to puzzle the story of a child, who bled,

A story everybody heard of but don’t believe it yet,â€

[J.Lee]

I wish I had retracted my first hello

Replacing it with a bidding of adieu

I wish I could have blinded myself

To all the good I have seen in you

 

For never did I believe your hands

Could hold me down so forcefully

As your repugnant breath I breathed

Without care and tears: unmercifully

 

Never did I dream you'd ignore my cries:

My pleas of desist as your speed increased

Never did I envision hate would lay acclaim to

Your breast: Anticipate it would be expressed

 

Never did I think questions I have

Would remain without your answers

Unable to believe: A beautiful soul

Violated as if you are my body' cancer

 

I feel exposed:

Passed around like horve d'oeuvres

What is the purpose of my limbs?

Were they fashioned merely to clench yours?

For such a proposed proposition, never

Did I grant: So was it worth it? Worth

Buckling under the weight of regret:

For taking such a destructive measure

Worth forgoing my permission for

5 minutes of your satiable pleasure?

 

Such a treasure you could of claimed

By the mere tying of a loose knot:

Yet you did not:

You opened it without voicing askance

And though now you are no more, see

To me than just a regrettable past tense

The blow dealt, I hold forever:

I bleed for you as if you were my mense

 

My affliction: an unfortunate association

An aberration: in my remaining lifespan

A familiarity that become the unfamiliar

A bond of trust that lays but unbounded

 

A terrible secret kept in secrecy: a shame

Not felt for myself: I'm but your victim

But for you: rapist; knowing I declined

 

P.S

 

I wrote this in a rush dude/ette (excuse the irregularity): I wanted to post a reply ever since I read this poem but somehow I just couldn't (Go figure); it just had that effect on me and not many people write about such a topic so kudos to you.

All I can say is that the parts I picked out from your poetry awakened something that was lying dormant for a while. A fire that had nothing but dying ambers reawakened to burn with vengence. Truly magnificent. Keep at it dears.

I wrote this poem simply because I was just dissapointed of the situation that happened with the girl who got sexually assualted by our famous POET (dont want to mention any names).
