What was it?

Look at what you did to me

You broke me in ways 

I didn't know I could be broken

You stole something from me

You left marks on my body 

That only i can see

You say I'm lying but you killed me!

I feel dirty and ashamed

You left me ruined and in shambles

You killed me in just one night

You're the biggest manipulator

You make it hard to fight

Trying to scrub away the memories 

But they still burn

You touched me and killed me

You said it was okay

But nothing about this is f*****g okay

You left me dead, and kicked me when you were done

And still tell me it wasn't rape

but if it wasn't f*****g rape

than what exactly was it?

I have struggled with Depression and anxiety my whole life. It sucks and it has been super hard to over come. I still struggle today with it and sometimes I don't know what to do. But I do know when I write out my feelings, I feel better and more motivated to share some of my things with the real world and realize that I'm not the only one who struggle with depression or heartbreak or whatever it may be.
You are a very talented author and I feel like as you continue to share, you will feel better and you will receive people out there who are struggling with the same things that you are.
Very heartfelt poem and it reminded me of a story I wrote called, "The blonde girl" If you want to read it you can, but you don't have to if you don't want to.
Keep up the incredible work and remember to smile!

Your friend,

This was absolutely heartbreaking. It was written with such anger and hurt and it's very clearly portrayed.

This is a powerful poem on abuse and your extreme feeling of having your body used and abused against any ability of your own to stop it. A rape of the body is one thing but, a rape of the mind is something else again.
