Again/Consent/How To Say It

How do I say this? I mean I have worked hard To be able to I told myself I would tell The next person to test me But when it happened last night My attempts were futile I still couldn’t say it Weakly I pushed him away He wouldn’t stop though His tongue was down my throat He gripped my ass I didn’t enjoy it But I couldn’t bring myself To tell him that Others want us together Maybe I should give it time Let him do as he pleases That’s what they want They tell me he’s great in bed Do I dare? No. I can’t let anything happen. Again. I need to fully consent But I don’t think I could with him He’s so strong though If I don’t tell him He will take my silence as consent. Again. How can I say it? Do I want to? Yes. I do. He isn’t who I want But is who I’m supposed to No one would bat an eye If I said I was with him Unlike with the other For I know they would ask He likes you? I thought he wasn’t your type? You gave it up, didn’t you? Maybe I should give it up But with who? Do I consent to something I’m supposed to like? Or to what I want to try? Do I allow something that is to come? Or do I wait for what I want That might not come? Maybe I should become That slut that they keep calling me. I guess I’ll wait to see If I consent.
