2 Jessicas: A Parallel

Folder: 
Society

At the same time 

you were being sold for sex

I was giving it away for free.

 

We were both victims

in different ways.

 

We've both been

scarred by circumstance,

marred by a man's touch.

 

We trusted the wrong people

that exploited our weaknesses.

 

We became vulnerable 

when we shouldn't have

and we paid the price.
