My body is a hand me down, my ***** second hand I’ve never really owned my own mind, flesh or land From birth I was an item, that his ring all passed around By the time I was a toddler, I’d learned not to make a sound Never the player, but a chess piece for him to use Never his daughter, just an unwilling child to abuse My body doesn’t belong to me, because he owned it all Beaten, ***** and tortured before I could ******* crawl The physical reminders, weigh heavy on my heart So tempted to just end it all, at least then I could restart So if I cut, burn or bite and leave marks upon my skin Then my body is no longer his, and then I ******* win My body is a hand me down, my ***** second hand I really want to **** myself, I think he’d understand.
