I Said No

I said no But you chose not to hear You still hurt me And you didn’t care. I said no But you laughed in my face You made me an object Of public disgrace. I said no But I was still used I was taken for granted And I was abused. I said no But I was still drugged You pleasured yourself And walked away with a shrug. I said no But you didn't give me a choice You maimed me and then You silenced my voice. The world tries to blames me But they do not know I never gave in to you I always said no. They call me a wildflower But they do not believe I said no but my answer You would not receive. The shame follows me Wherever I go They think I said yes When I really said no.
