One shot, two shot, three shot, four He sat by sipping his beer, egging me on As I attempted to show off my high alcohol tolerance But ***** doesn't sit well on an empty stomach
Not much time later I asked for food Which was delayed due to a shortage of effort on his part
When I asked for water I was told they didn't have cups
And when I asked for a sober drive they said they would call But the phone was never picked up
After a while I begged for something Anything To calm my stomach As they ushered me to the kitchen I could feel it all I vomited all over the floor And myself They laughed it off "It happens to the best of us" They said as though demeaning yourself to that level was the same as tripping over your shoelaces
When we got back to the room My head went heavy and my memory became dark I layed my head on the couch On when I opened my eyes again my friend Who was there to keep me safe Was 22 shots in Yes 22 shots We asked for a ride again but "The party was just beginning" I refused to move so when he offered me A night to sleep on his couch All I could think was that I liked not having to move I watched my friend being dragged away by his frat brothers When my eyes opened again He was on the couch cuddled up to me I wanted nothing more than some space to breathe But couldn't find the words To express my want for him to leave When he whispered sweet nothing's in my ear I realized it was truly time to go I managed to pick myself up And asked for a ride home But "it would be hours before the sober got there" I stated that I could walk back on my own But I was informed that it was a poor decision Because I was a woman and drunk and alone He said he would figure something else out and left the room My eyes closed again and I remember being pulled off the couch and pushed up into a bed And soon he was laying next to me I just wanted it to be over And I was past the point of control I gave up and tried to fall asleep But then his hands wrapped around me And slowly moved across my body I didn't move. He reached his hand inside my pants And I was in shock I said stop but it was too quiet He didn't hear or maybe choose not to I said it again and his hand pulled away but stayed on my skin It went blank again
In the morning he drove me home
A poem I didn't spend much time on because I hate recalling the event but I think it is important to tell.
