as I watch you walk through the door

my knees buckle to the floor

my heart begins to race

because I remember the chase

and now the court has a case

 you shouldn't have left a trace

 you're such a disgrace

if you haven't realized by now all

I can say is how

yes I was raped

 it was even taped

 your honor I was raped

I barely escaped

today is just a replay

 as I see his face

 I want to erase

This piece has no relationship to my personal life. But it's something I feel strongly about which is Rape.
