                              I may not be enough for you

                    But my body is just enough for you to screw

                         As long as you finish, screw how I feel

                   Just as long as you get your part of the deal

                       All I do is try to give you your pleasure

    Little do you know I stay up at night trying to see how much I measure

                      Late at night I see you typing, you say hey

     Knowing what you want I show you you my body hoping you’d stay

                Why is it when you’re needing me i’m always there 

          But the one time I need you, you’re gone how is that fair?

                     Of course you left just like all the others

                  It’s always my fault, I tend to always smother

       When you left you didn’t turn back and left me filled with despair

       Do you remember all the times you reassured me how you care

             Turns out it was a lie because you ever did turn back

             Yet here I am trying to ul you back in by all the slack

                        My body is enough for you to see,

                              But will I ever amount to be

                                                                        More

                                                                              Than

                                                                                    Just

                                                                                         My

                                                                                            Body

The author's comments:

I wrote this piece when I was being sexually harassed. Writing has always been my way to talk about things I couldn’t tell anyone else. I was going through this for about a year I had just gotten out of a long relationship and he made me feel wanted so I did whatever in hopes he’d stay. I finally spoke up and a lot of other girls did too.
