SHE SAID NO

 
She said no
Rough hands hold her down
She can feel the ground
Scraping her back
Clothes being ripped
Who is that screaming?
She realizes it’s her pleading
She said no
He acts like this is a game
Why can he not feel her pain?
Ignores her cries
She is fighting for her life
He ignores her and just carries on
Just steals what he wants
Like she is just a piece of meat
Violated and abused
Like her body is not hers
Just being used
For his sick fantasy or fun
The pain in her throat proves
How hard she is screaming
She shouted stop
Rough hands cover her mouth
This is not a bad dream
A tortured reality
He finishes his sick act
Runs away
To in shock to move
Broken, confused and used
Adrenaline and survival kicks in
She runs home screaming
People act like they don’t
See her
Shower steaming hot
Tries to scrub the dirt
And memory away
Not enough to wash
The pain away
Body aches
Covered in cuts and bruises
Needs to tell someone
She said no why he didn’t stop
Climbs under the duvet hides  away
Brain tormented
While he is boasting
Does he realize the damage he has done?
Tablets clutched tight in her hand
Feels this is the only way out
Relives it over and over in her head
This is not her fault
She did not do anything wrong
She said no
She gets up throws the tablets away
Picks up the phone and dials
Before she changes her mind
She says to the person on
The end of the line
I need to report a crime
