Could Have Said No
it felt like i was stuck in a place that i coul never come out of.
a place ive been before, not a good place either.
the feeling of being used.
being alone again.
she tells me that it wasnt my fault, that they shoulve known better, but i beg to differ.
i am old enough to know right from wrong.
i knew that running away was wrong,
not saying no was wrong too.
i am stuck in the past where they pass me around.
a little quicky is all they want and then they move me to the next one in line
i feel my skin crawling as i can feel the pressure of there bodies against mine
why did i freeze?
why did i not say no?
i walk out of the building,
smelling of men that i didnt even know...
why didnt i say no?
