Scars of an Unbroken Silence

Folder: 
2008

One drink, two drink-
This party’s fine
Three drink, four drink-
A grand ole time

One by one,
And two by two
I drank them all
Who could'a knew?

Just lay down
I’m so tired now
Who would’ve known
The evil they’d allow

One kiss, two kiss-
I feel his breath
Three kiss, four kiss-
His lips are wet

Is it a dream?
I hope and wish
But it’s a nightmare
And I can’t do shit

I feel my head,
It’s hitting something
And then he’s inside
I can feel him sing

One tear, two tear-
But he doesn’t see
Three tear, four tear
I beg silently

Why can’t I move?
Why can’t I shout?
Will it ever stop?
This I doubt

I pass back out
For my own sanity
Wake up, wake up!
Now he’s shaking me

One step, two step-
Must get away
Three step, four step-
I didn’t want to play

My innocence he took
Something I can never mend
The scars he left
I can never tend

Still I try
To be so brave
And yet I live life
Always afraid

One life, two life-
They will destroy
Three life, four life-
They think we’re all toys

They never stop
Again and again
They think it’s a game
That has no end

So if you hear
Or if you see
Next time think twice
And speak out for me

Thank you for your critique on my poem, it was much appreciated. As for yours, I think it speaks for itself. You wrote about such a deep and delicate situation in such a way that really told the story with such emotion that I could feel it. I personally would keep 'Broken Silence' in the title, but I'd add something about Innocence and maybe Scars. That's just me, though. Keep on writing more, you're good!
