I hate that word
Rape
I want to take away its power
The conflict of fear and craving a comforting touch
Because sometimes words alone are not enough to overpower that word
Rape
I want to forget what it means
Memories of the pain still cause physical discomfort and mental agony
Rape
I want to make that word go away and never have to say it again
But my time with it is unfinished and ignoring it won't help
Rape
I wrestle and grapple with it but it continues to take me down and take me under
Rape
It takes me out of my sleep at night and away from the present when I'm awake
Rape
No way to fight, no defense against this overwhelming powerful word.
