A Night I Will Never Forget

Sadness drained my hazel eyes
As you reached out to help me through it all,
Surely happiness will be found again.

You held me tight through the night
Although I didn't want to be around,
You said you had to show me something
Maybe it will bring a smile to my face.

You walked me to your bedroom
and locked the door behind you,
I didn't think much of it
Even though my heart began to race.

You pushed me on the bed 
and ripped my shirt of my back,
You said it wouldn't hurt
Just to stay quiet.

I battled against your strength 
Only to be found the weaker one,
Pain forced its way inside my body,
My innocence was taken
By the one i called "friend".

My back and neck became scratch by the metal bars
That supported the bed,
My legs were bent and stretched in ways that didn't seem possible. 

When it was all over I began to cry out to God,
"Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. Take away all that I did wrong."

What an evil person!! This makes me so angry!! Oh, my heart hurts thinking about what cruelty has been done here. Assuming this a true story I hope the narrator was able to escape this.
