You might as well have been driving a van with no windows
The way you child molested your way in to me
Picking me up
Knowing damn well you
Really
Didn’t
Know
Me
How old are you?
I’m 15
You’re 22?
I stop
I think
I’m getting a ride
As opposed to walking the remaining 15 blocks
That I might have had to walk
Had you not pervertedly perpetrated
Me
And my teenage acquaintance
You gave me all your numbers
Making damn sure that I would
Get at you
So you could
Get me
And I did- because again
I was 15
You spoke your adult lingo
Playing daddy
Pretending you could be my daddy
But you knew your intentions
And I too had my intentions
A ride to school and that sexy
Purple
Pager
Hooked up with voicemail and statewide
So you could keep track of me at all times
Although you knew damn well
I was at school til the bell
Rang
Then you would be standing at the gate
With your stanking ass breath waitin to rape
This 15-year-old body
And even though I tried to talk you out of it-
You persuaded my young mentality
To get me
To get me
And you got me
And remember how you held me?
Against those sheets that I cling too?
Smashing my baby body into yours
While the tears singe my face
And in rage you yell that you aint that man that raped me
You didn’t rape me
You didn’t rape me
You didn’t
Rape
Me
But I let you tell it and I believed you
You were the one in control
Because you
Raped me
And when I fucked myself up
And put shit in my bloodstream
That didn’t belong there
And I was hungry
I knew you could rape me again
But I could get paid
So in one quick trick minute
You forced your disgusting mind and body onto my baby body
And made a baby in my body
And when I told you to let me go
You said no
But I was the one saying no
And you
Just wouldn’t
Let
Go
And when I was sowing your seed
And I was in need
Of a place to sleep
I called you
Simply out of desperation
15
You stayed on the couch
You let me stay in the bed
But in the morning I woke to you talking shit to my head
With your dick inside talking about the whore that I was
And that you weren’t the only one
And once again
You raped me
My baby body
At 15
And so I did my part and had your son
Your beautiful son
Who has eyes like me and ears like you
And who ever knew
That you’d see him twice in your life
And then disappear like
That
So I moved on
But this boy with your skin tone
Darker than mine
Bearing your last name
Has no idea who you are
And that you exist
Aint that some shit?
And as he grows
Questions have arose
And I have no answers
I can only show him the picture of the first day you saw him
And the only time you held him
But a picture can’t be a daddy
So I promise him answers when he needs them
But
You
Can’t give him the answers
You can’t be a father
Because you have your daughters
But my son came before them
And would probably like to know them
But you
A sorry ass
Rapist
Who was actually 31 might I add
Not 22
You don’t realize what you’re putting him through
You
Sorry
Ass
Non-dad
Whoa... I don't know where to begin. I am veryyyy new at sharing my works and reading others, and I must say I have never experienced something like that reading a poem. I was glued to every word (sorry bout the cliche) but i was. My eyes were squinting as I was reading... it was building anger and fustration in me... its horrid to think anyone could do that... and its even worse thinking you had to deal with that... i love the power you present with your words....it.. unreal..... keep up the work

If this is true, this is sick and desperately unlucky. If the poem does say the truth, my heart goes out to you. I have heard of some close friends being treated similarly, and it makes me sick.
They say raw emotion makes good poetry; anger-filled poems are nothing short of excellent. This holds all the qualities of an angry poem, and it makes its points really stand out. Bravo!
