"WHY ME'

I knew each time I heard the footsteps coming to my room what was going to happen,
I knew you could hear my tears even though I tryed to keep them silent,
You knew you were doing wrong yet you told me I had to be strong.
I hated going to bed at night because I knew you'd creep in my room.
And again my tears hit the pillow with a hard blow.In my mind I always went to another place
While you took advantage of me n my innocent face.
I was so scared to tell anyone because of the fear.
Yet each knight you creeped in my room year after year.
I have forgiven you but not forgotten
Because I refuse to let you have that power over me
I use to ask myself 'WHY ME"
Now I say to myself it wasn't me it was you who were to blind to see
