Deprived, Depraved
Of the ability to choose
Brutally, Ravishingly, Unforgivingly
My clothes are torn
It’s not my fault that I am a woman
Not my fault that my breast and backside
Appeal to your lascivious, greedy, selfish eyes
No. Not my fault
But it is my fault when you force yourself into me
My fault when you stifle my pleas for mercy
My fault when your present a STD
Naked, Exposed, Broken
You leave me
Bleeding in body from your harsh, undeserved punishment
In mind from the now deplorable state of my body
In heart from the devastation of my mind
My peace, my dreams, my hope
How can I live through
The abuse, the degradation, the rape
Of me
That is very very good, it shuld be used to help the rape victims of dominica, there is no support for rape victims, i myself had the unfortunate experiance of an attack, unfortunatly i was asleep in bed and he blind folded me during the process,i never went to the police, dominica to small for that, and i had no idea who he was, as he only spoke to me a few words which where, keep your eyes closed.
If i knew i would have been taken seriously and if my business would have been kept private i would have gone to make a report.
This poem is very very ture in every aspect, and if and i mean if it can be used to help victims then thank god. it is about time.
I left dominica 6 months later for another island.
