MeToo
January 31, 2019
We were not comfortable.
Nor was it consensual.
We did not ask for it.
Nor did we want it.
We were taken advantage of,
not requesting it.
Why did "no" not work for you?
We said it loud and clear.
Multiple times.
Was it because we were girls?
Afraid and alone?
We were naïve till now,
thinking everyone was gentle.
When will it be enough?
Pain and sorrow is flowing through our tears,
but you don't seem to care.
