Permission
Do things to me in my sleep
You fucking creep
Did I give you permission, no.
You’re standing there as I’m passed out
Watching men mess about
My unconscious body is not your toy
Did I give you permission, no.
I know I chose to take such drugs
Associate with creeps and thugs
So come assault me why don’t you
It’s what the other boys seem to do
I’m lying there thinking I’m safe
No recollection of my day
Yet I wake up my clothing’s moved
Around the room, what did you choose
My socks and trousers on the floor
I’ve not woken up to this before
I don’t know who or where I am
I just passed out, what is this scam
I thought you were my honest friend
Friend til the end, not on a mind bend
You make me sick, your mind is twisted
Taking off my clothes and knickers
Who are you, why did you watch
Who joined in, on your own couch
I stayed for days, I remember none
Don’t take those pills, they’ll rape you, gone.

I hope this didn't really happen to you. I can't think of anything more cowardly.

It happens daily, to women everywhere. Sadly.
I rarely write about things that aren’t real. I can’t say for certain if I was raped, as I genuinely can’t remember.
This is a summation of a few occasions, and this so called friend did tell me after nearly ten years of friendship that he stood and watched. Can safely say that conversation was when the so called friendship ended. But I have every reason to believe something did happen. Why take ten years to tell someone that unless somewhere deep down he had reason for a guilty conscience?

Throwing him to the curb was a good idea. As I said, cowards.

No one should do anything against their will…
Because of those who sit on the couch and watch the world is in such a state…
A shocking amazing poem J… bravo for your bravery and for writing this..

It’s alright, it was a lifetime ago now, it’s almost like it never really happened. But I got spiked whilst I was out with friends recently, one minute I was on the dancefloor, the next I was in bed and it was morning, with zero recollection of how I got there. Luckily I was with good friends, luckily nothing happened. But it brought it all back to the surface. What’s worse is that the bouncers kicked me out and every taxi refused to take me home. So even in this wonderful modern world of 2024, with all this newfound awareness, the attitudes towards safety in these situations in reality hasn’t changed one bit.
You’re 28yrs old as opposed to 18, and yet the same thing happened. It greatly saddens me that these things will always happen. You’re either predator or prey in this world, and some people will see a chance and take everything without permission. Whether you’re man, woman or child, if a certain someone wants something that’s not theirs, they’ll take it. Everyday. It’s fucked up.

You have the right to both feel safe & be safe. Unfortunately, as you are probably aware, your rights count for nothing, resulting from a non consensual act if someone is determined to harm you. Your rights only exist in hindsight, when it is too late, when you are the victim, standing up in court.
