She Couldn't Take It Anymore


College was supposed to broaden her horizons
After the second year, she dropped out
Fell into the hands of a man
Who took her virtue against her will
She was a student in his class
Overnight her world was torn apart
After months of silence, she couldn't cope
She packed her bags to run away
From the hunter that laid a trap
She went home and faced more pain
Her heart ached and her stomach churned
There were her parents putting her down
Pointing fingers at her throwing away life
If only they knew of her baby
And the depression she was going through
At twenty she had bills piling up
With no means of paying them off
There's no job, no support, no future
Only the four walls of her dark room
That harbored her sinking ship of life
Often starring off into the dark space
Seeking a way out of this abyss
The waves of voices in her head
Washing along the shores of her heart
The pain deepening yet wanting to end
She's on the water's edge looking in
Days dwelled into weeks, both babies crying
She lights a candle in the dark
She sees a shadow of herself jump 
As the four walls are closing in
For the last time, she sees him
Naked and on top, beating her bad
Her cries to stop speeding his thrill
There’s pools of blood covering the sheets
She blows out that candle and prays
Bless me Father I tried my best
She gather herself for the last time
Tears in her eyes as she leaves
She looks at her parents waving goodbye
But they’re not there, only the darkness
She begins the walk towards the ocean


life is so unfair
you cross the road on green lights
and someone hits you
