Assault

I felt that it was all my fault But i am the victim of sexual assault. Nobody seems to see it that way I wish I could just fade. I was quiet for what felt eternity But I found peace in that impurity. I really wanted to show what was going inside me, But rather they eyed me, I found none to whom I can confide in, Because no one could understand my silence. I felt embarrassed of myself, But should I be? Bcuz I had no control over my body, He did. I often think, people like me Will Actually get true equity? Justice for what happened, justice for what's going to happen Justice for people like me, Is death sentence enough? Death is nothing infront of what I've been through, But nobody can feel it Because they are not in my shoe let me tell you this, It requires a lot of courage for a rape survival to survive.
