Rape My Future

I want to hide in the closet My heart jumps with fear I wish I wasn't here The arguing begins to come to an end Tears began to escape my eyes The shadow that locks my view Is so cruel and devious I lock the door in fear Of what lurks in the shadows What lurks beyond that door The door knob turns with creaks of misery The thought of what the cruel shadow might do Escapes my mind to hide in the dark corners Of the world that I was once afraid Even though I fear the loneliness of the dark The loneliness of the dark comforts my fears The door opens in inches like a snake Awaiting its next meal like prey in the jungle The pain makes the breathe escape my lips The flesh to flesh touch makes my body numb The rivers flow between thy legs Where is thy protector? I should speak for the cruel shadow That shows me his pain and misery throughout life. And now Here I stand underneath the belt of poverty Rape my future An I shall be one with poverties own.
