I'm tired of being sexualized,
Of waking up in a sweat.
Dreaming of his manipulation -
His authority in my bed

I want someone to search for my soul,
To flip through the files of my heart.
Not greedy fingers of yours,
But hands that cradle inner parts.
For myself

Groggily typed this on my phone at 3am. I'm sick of nightmares.
The way they treated me haunts my sleep.
