Stolen Night

Awaken alone in this bed Crying and lost, I hold my head My bruised body covered with a sheet Silently I curl up and begin to weep My memory draws a blank He enters and asks if I am awake He comes to me and says there’s food I pull away but it does no good He grabs me and says last night was fun Then he tosses my clothes to me, ans says it’s getting late I look outside and see no light What happened to me that I lost a whole night He says we met at the bar and it’s been fun He takes me to my car and then we were done I cry and I cry, but no one cares No one knows of my tears I call the only one that I trust Not hearing his voice, my hope turns to dust Isn’t there even one who cares I look to my gun, but do I dare I am not a survivor anymore I am a victim again, all the way to my core I guess I am not as strong as everyone thinks My life has been shattered and placed me at the brink
