Your scent resinates on my skin
The image of you staring at me naked
"I feel so violated" I said over and over in my head
I told you "no"
You kept going
I didn't stop you, because I thought it's what you wanted
"I cared about you. How could you do this to me?"
No answer.

Please free me of your restraints
You're done using my body to soothe your desires
I want to take a shower
Let me wash away all the lies you told me
Let me wash away the pain

I allowed you to bring me here
I followed you into your bedroom
Preventing this from happening was all I could think about
The possibility of you fighting me
or
not allowing me to leave was stronger

So I laid there
Motionless
Worthless
Distraught
Forced friction
No emotional protection

"Go ahead," I thought
No escaping you now
You sweat profusely
I'm weeping internally
You know something is wrong
You say nothing

Text: "I need you"
Text: "I'm sorry"
Some days, it feels never will be my forever
Especially when loneliness so fully consumes
Such longing of heart
My mind much dissevered
Still hoping that one day will come some day soon

Time isn't kind to the ones who hold on
Every day becomes harder than each one before
It's hard to find words when silence cries on
From the one I believe to be worth fighting for

To feel so alone despite those who are near
Is a hell from which there seems to be no escape
As my heart still cries out to the one I hold dear
But, my efforts seem lost, as the truth resinates

Not all who love will win through the endeavor
For the one whom their heart just can't seem to let go
When waiting forever feels like waiting for never
We begin to wonder what we've been fighting for

If the one who wants effort gives none in return
And if words go unanswered for days without end
Should I continue to fight for the one my heart burns
Or let her go, hoping my broken heart mends?

A person can say that they'll wait forever
But they shouldn't be made to if love is sincere
Am I waiting for forever?
Am I waiting for never?
I hope, one day soon, the truth will ring clear

— The End —
