Destroyed

May 3, 2018

Lights flashed against a shivering sky,

sweat covers our bodies as he pins me down.

Screaming,

crying,

silencing,

terror-

the destroying of innocence.

Now a depetalled flower,

empty and colorless

with the roots to go back-

but no tools. No help.

Every inch of skin,

ravish and exposed-

I cannot move.

He was not gentle,

not careful, nor sweet-

he was violent. He just took me;

he just destroyed me.

This piece is inspired by a past sexual assualt that happened to me.  It's about the destroying of childhood innocence.
