I sat there, silent tears falling off my not high - not sharp- cheekbones. I sat there while you continued shoving yourself father down my throat.             Did you know I was crying? Would you have cared? I got up, and he looked at me sympathetically. As though he wasn't screaming at me, "You know you want this." "Come on. No one will know. No one has to know. It'll be quick."             Did you not get the hint when I began lying there lifeless,             almost, close enough? Did you not think to stop when I said             no? When I couldn't find myself to look at you while you were             committing your act? Would you have stopped if you could've             heard my thoughts? At least he had the decency to drive me home, this time.

Why am I apologizing?
I sat there, silent tears falling off my not high - not sharp- cheekbones. I sat there while you continued shoving yourself father down my throat.             Did you know I was crying? Would you have cared? I got up, and he looked at me sympathetically. As though he wasn't screaming at me, "You know you want this." "Come on. No one will know. No one has to know.

At least he had the decency to drive me home, this time.
And yet I continue to come back.
