Hallucination-Torture
His footsteps right outside the door
I can hear them… Closer and closer
Can you hear it?
Shhh little girl listen
I run to the door to hold it shut
5 minutes… 10 minutes
No one comes.
I look out to find
That no ones home.
I feel him on my skin
You’re not here
But forever within
Your burned into my mind
Like a song in a nightmare
Or a horrible lullaby.
I can feel his touch
I sense it… Closer and closer
Can you feel it?
Be still little girl… Pretend to sleep
5 minutes… 10 minutes
It never comes… I remove the covers
I look out to find
That no ones here
I feel him inside of me
Next to me... Forcing me
I hear you
It’s a delusion
I feel your touch
Its an illusion
I smell your cologne
Its imagination
I see your face
It’s a nightmare
So scared
Hiding my pain
Cant cry
I’m going insane
Hiding the truth
From all of you
What would you do
If you really knew
Knew what he’s done
Knew what never should have begun
The scars and pain will never be undone.
