An edited version of one of the first poems I posted


Suffering
from the
selfish force
stealing
her sanctuary

Suffocated
by the
endless weight
crushing
her broken spirit

Repelled
by the
wretched stench
flowing
in the air

Plagued
by the
breathing echo
whispered
in her ear

Harassed
by the
vile memory
fixed
in her mind

Haunted
by the
nightly shadow
looming
over her

Suspicious
of the
camouflaged intentions
hidden
in plain sight

Guilted
by an
insidious disease
mocking
her sanity

Accepting
of the
contemptable deed
detroying
visceral serenity

Healed
by the
spirited strength
thriving
within her

VICTORIOUS
for reclaiming
the
life that
had
been stolen
Did you know approximately 2/3 of rapes were committed by someone known to the victim, 54% of rapes go unreported, and that 1 in 5 women in the U.S will be sexually assaulted? Crazy.
