I HOPE IT BOTHERED YOU

I HOPE IT BOTHERED YOU

 

I ran away from the unloving family, the abusive home

Running wherever my feet would take me, wherever they go

I was broken, jaded, misunderstood, lost, unloved

Then you came along cherishing me, treating me right

And then I finally felt loved.

 

We left one day and went far, far away

And then soon came that dreadful day

When you violated me, raped me

You told me I was yours

You told me I owed you.

 

I must sell my body for you

A different man every night inside me

Molesting my very being all because of you

My dreams, my innocence, my chastity taken away

My world turned upside down; shaken to my core.

 

I knew I’d never be free from the hell

You put me there to cry out in fright

Too scared to sleep

Too scared to run

Too scared to leave.

 

Because I knew if I did

You‘d come looking and catch me

You looked right through me

Never saw me as a person

I hope it bothered you because I was only thirteen.
